CornerBite
by jianuoczmc
CornerBite lets players eat food one bite at a time, saving progress on each item so a meal can be stopped and resumed later.
What it does
Eating a vanilla food starts a bite-by-bite process instead of finishing in one go. A partly eaten item keeps its progress when the player puts it away, and the next session picks up where the last one ended. A bitten food shows a clear corner-bite visual and a durability-like progress bar, while unbitten items look and behave exactly as in vanilla.
Stacking is handled so a partly eaten item does not duplicate or split a stack in a way that loses progress. Only items that have been bitten change; fresh food stays vanilla. The mod targets Minecraft 1.20.1 on Forge alone, and it is published for that single version.
CornerBite runs on client and server, so both sides need it and the server and every player should install it. The code is under the MIT License and is open source, and source code and an issue tracker are linked publicly. Files are published only on Forge for 1.20.1, with version 1.0.7 as the latest, dated 2026-01-25.
Key features
Bite-by-bite eating
A food is eaten a bite at a time, and the player can stop mid-meal at any point and continue later.
Saved progress per item
Each partly eaten item stores its own progress, so several bitten foods in one inventory keep separate states.
Clear bite visuals
Bitten foods show a corner-bite texture and a progress bar that reads like item durability.
Safe stacking
Bitten items do not dupe or split a stack, and unbitten items stack normally with other food of their kind.

Use cases
Who it’s for: Players who want vanilla food to take more than one bite and who prefer a visible progress marker on partly eaten items. Server owners running Forge 1.20.1 can add it so that every player gets the same eating behavior.
How it compares
ZynAutoEat is client-side only and published for Fabric and Forge at 1.20.1, with All rights reserved as its license, so it is not open source. Bite by Night by Wish Team runs on client and server, uses Forge for 1.20.1, and is also under All rights reserved and not open source. Gorp's World shares the client and server environment and the Forge 1.20.1 version, under All rights reserved, not open source. CornerBite differs from all three by being open source under the MIT License and by being published only for Forge 1.20.1.

What the author says
CornerBite makes vanilla eating feel more natural: you can stop mid-eat and your progress is saved per item. Bitten foods show a clear corner-bite visual, plus a durability-like progress bar while eating.
