Eggs & Berries
by Arcadyan
Eggs & Berries adds new food recipes that use eggs and sweet berries, made for players who tire of only frying eggs.
What it does
The mod adds foods and recipes built on eggs and berries, including glow berries and mushrooms, so that extra eggs and berries collected while travelling have a use. Several foods give helpful effects that suit exploration and combat. Most of the foods imitate the functions of vanilla foods and use only vanilla ingredients, which keeps them close to the base game. The recipes are added to the built-in recipe book, so they can be found without a separate guide.
The mod is inspired by the lack of simple, quick recipes for emergency meals. It also works with furnaces, smokers, campfires and crafting tables, so cooking follows the same blocks as vanilla. Eggs & Berries runs on client and server and is published for NeoForge 1.21.8, with the latest file 1.0.1 dated 2026-06-20. It is released under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license and is not open source. Bug reports go through the issue tracker, which is linked from the project.
Key features
Egg and berry recipes
New foods use eggs and sweet berries as their main ingredients, giving the eggs more uses than frying.
Effect-giving foods
Some foods grant helpful effects that support exploration and combat, as long as the player eats them before the trip.
Vanilla-style cooking
Foods imitate vanilla food functions and use only vanilla ingredients, cooked in the usual furnace, smoker and campfire.
Recipe book entries
Every new recipe appears in the built-in recipe book, so players find the foods without outside documentation.

How it compares
Effective Berries is open source under the MIT License, built for NeoForge 1.21.1, and is client and server.

More Fast Food is client and server for NeoForge 1.21.1 and is not open source, released with all rights reserved. Eggs & Berries targets 1.21.8 only, so it does not cover the 1.21.1 builds of these mods.
