Cereal Bar Mod
Cereal Bar Mod adds a single craftable food item, a cereal bar, that restores hunger quickly in the early game.
What it does
Players craft the bar from ingredients, and eating it refills hunger in a short time. It is meant for brief stretches of survival play, when a snack is enough and a larger meal is not needed. The author describes it as a simple addition that fits into vanilla survival without changing progression.
The mod is a small content addition rather than a system overhaul. It adds no complex mechanics, and the author states it is built to feel useful alongside existing foods instead of replacing them. Players who find vanilla food repetitive get one more option to vary their diet.
Installation needs Forge. Only the server and players who join it need the mod, since both sides must run it. Files are published for six game versions, 1.20.1 – 1.20.6, under the MIT License. The code is not open source.
