Auto Food Eater
by VoidXD
Auto Food Eater is a client-side mod that eats food from the inventory when the hunger bar drops, so players can keep their attention on the game.
What it does
When hunger falls below a level the player sets, the mod picks a food item from the hotbar or inventory and eats it without any input. The threshold is configurable, and a priority list controls which foods are used first, so rarer items can be kept for later. Edible items from other mods are included, and Support Edibles is listed as a companion that adds food handling.
Because only the client runs the mod, a server does not need to install it and players can join servers without it. The mod is published for Fabric, NeoForge and Quilt, with files for 1.21.4 – 1.21.11 covering eight release versions. The latest builds are 1.0.0 for 1.21.11, released 2026-02-05. The code is not open source, and the mod is released under All rights reserved.
Key features
Automatic food consumption
Food is eaten instantly from the inventory once hunger falls below the chosen level, with no key press needed.
Customizable thresholds
The hunger level that triggers eating can be set, so the mod acts earlier or later depending on play style.
Priority management
Foods can be ranked so the mod consumes chosen items first and keeps rare foods from being wasted.
Safe PvP survival
Health is kept topped up during fights, which lets combat and building continue without stopping to eat.

Use cases
Long expeditions
Players exploring caves, dungeons and new biomes can keep hunger full while traveling far from base.
Mining and farming
Time spent gathering resources is not interrupted by hunger checks, since the mod eats on its own.
Hardcore play
Automatic eating reduces the chance of an unexpected death from starvation during a hardcore run.
Who it’s for: Players who want to spend less time managing hunger in survival, exploration, mining or combat, and players on multiplayer servers who run the mod on their own client.
