Beton's Rations and food
by ConcreteGuy
Beton's Rations and food adds canned food, field rations, ration boxes and chocolate bars to the Forge loader for 1.19.4, with Beton's Rations and food as the mod's own name.
What it does
Players who want a little more food in their survival game can craft canned meals from a mix of ingredients, and the cans themselves are reusable steel containers that can be smelted. Cardboard boxes store canned food and can be burned as fuel, and cups are reusable too. Some crafted items are slightly weaker than their top ingredient, and the mod includes a few light jokes, such as condensed milk that boils over when cooked.
The mod is open source under the MIT License and runs on Forge for 1.19.4 only, with 1.0.1 as the latest file, published on 2024-06-16. Because it is a client and server mod, the server and every player need it. Its author notes that the content is small, around 30 new food items, and that updates may or may not follow.

How it compares
Extra Food is open source under the MIT License, runs on Fabric and Forge, and has files for 1.19.2 – 1.20.1. Rationcraft is not open source, runs on Forge and NeoForge, and has files for 1.20.1 – 1.21.8. Ar's Food is not open source, runs on Forge only and has files for 1.20.1, so it is the narrowest of the three.
