Epicurean - Culinary Art in Minecraft

This modification requires Fabric API and Cotton API to function.

Epicurean mod is inspired by the philosophy of Epicurus, who believed that food should bring pleasure. This concept has been transferred to the world of Minecraft, where the hunger and nutrition system becomes not just a necessity, but a source of genuine enjoyment and benefits.

Main Features

The mod adds completely new agricultural crops to the game: tomatoes, peppers, and onions, which can be found in the world or grown independently.

The central element of the modification is the cooking table, where various dishes can be created that provide different positive effects. Recipe details can be found in the project's wiki.

Unique Eating Mechanics

One of the interesting features is the ability to disable the hunger system and use only saturation for health restoration, reminiscent of mechanics in some RPG games. This option is configurable and disabled by default.

The mod adds jelly that can be crafted from sweet berries and used to enhance food, increasing hunger and saturation restoration. Super jelly provides even more benefits and temporarily increases jump height.

Harvest Automation

Hoppers can now automatically harvest various crops. For wheat and similar crops, the hopper is placed under the soil where the crop grows. For pumpkins and melons - under the soil beneath the fruit itself. For cocoa beans - directly under the bean, for sweet berries - under the grass/soil under the bush, and for nether wart - under the soul sand under the plant.

Additional Improvements

Nether wart can now be accelerated with bone meal. Cake can be eaten directly from the inventory, restoring all its nutritional value at once - to do this, hold right-click in the air.

Glistering melons instantly restore one heart of health. In settings, you can enable the ability to eat iron nuggets, each with their own hunger and saturation restoration values.

Omnivore Mode

A special Omnivore mode allows eating almost any block or item that doesn't have a special right-click action. The amount of hunger and saturation restored is configurable. Items with durability lose a configurable amount of durability instead of being instantly destroyed. Try eating TNT for a special surprise!
