Food Plus
by KikiTheBoti_
Food Plus, a Forge mod for 1.20.1, adds a range of new food items, plant types and recipes to the game.
What it does
Tomato and cucumber bushes generate in forests, and each can be eaten or grown from seeds on a farm. Tomatoes and cucumbers combine with bowls to make a salad, and cooked chicken can be added to that salad to make chicken salad. Popsicles are crafted from a stick, ice and sweet berries or melons, and a Golden Watermelon Popsicle gives a notably high saturation value.
The mod is built for Forge and is released for 1.20.1 only, with the latest file dated 2025-01-16. Both the server and every player need it, since the environment is client and server. The code is covered by All rights reserved and is not open source. The author suggests trying other food mods and YouTuber-themed additions, including a Rick Roll item.
