Better Bites: Expanded
by ZamyMods
Better Bites: Expanded brings a large set of new foods, crops, ingredients, desserts and drinks into Survival while keeping the vanilla feel of the game.
What it does
Players can start a farm with new crops, including tomatoes and lettuce, and seeds for both turn up naturally when breaking grass. The mod also adds drinks like soda, milkshakes and coffee, along with ingredients such as cheese, salt, flour, dough, chocolate and sunflower oil.
Everything is obtained through normal Survival gameplay, with no creative-only items. Sunflowers have a second use: an empty bucket used on them yields sunflower oil, which then works as a cooking ingredient. The mod requires Fabric API and is published for Fabric only, with a single release, 1.0.0 for 26.1.2, dated 2026-08-11. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. The code is not open source; the mod is released under All rights reserved.
Key features
New crops and seeds
Tomatoes and lettuce can be planted from seeds that drop from grass, so a farm can be started entirely in Survival.
Cooked dishes
Ingredients combine into burgers, pizza, pancakes, waffles, donuts, cookies and other meals that expand the food options.
Drinks and milkshakes
New drinks include soda, milkshakes and coffee, adding options beyond the vanilla selection.
Sunflower oil from buckets
Using an empty bucket on sunflowers produces sunflower oil, which serves as a cooking ingredient.
