Edible Blocks
by nelle
Edible Blocks lets players eat blocks such as dirt, honey blocks and beehives, with the effects of each block defined by the mod.
What it does
Dirt, honey and other blocks become food items that a player can consume, and some of them apply effects when eaten, including the Instant Damage effect tied to certain blocks. The mod needs Fabric API to run, and it is released under CC0 1.0 Universal, so the code is in the public domain and is open source.
The mod is installed on the server and on every player's client, since it is marked as client and server. Builds are published for Fabric and Quilt across seven game versions, 1.19.3 – 1.20.4, with 1.0.0 for 1.20.4 as the newest file, dated 2024-09-12. It was first published on 2024-04-10, and public source code and an issue tracker are linked from its project page.
Key features
Edible dirt
Plain dirt blocks can be eaten, a playful change to how the block is used in survival.
Honey and honeycomb blocks
Honey blocks and honeycomb blocks are edible, each giving its own food result when consumed.
Beehives and bee nests
Beehive and bee nest blocks can be eaten, so the bee-related blocks join the food set.
Instant Damage effect
Eating certain blocks applies the Instant Damage effect, which hurts the player right away.

Use cases

Who it’s for: Players who want a joke food mod for vanilla survival, and server owners who want blocks to be edible for everyone on the server.
How it compares
Edible Doors is a Fabric-only mod for 1.20.4 – 1.20.5, with the client and server environment and all rights reserved, so it is not open source. Cobble is open source under the BSD 3-Clause License, runs on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt for 1.21.2 – 1.21.4, and only the server needs it, with clients optional. Compostater is open source under the MIT License, works on Fabric for 1.20.1 – 1.20.4, and needs both the client and server.
