Foodies

Wild crops appear on the overworld after a dead bush is broken, since dead bushes drop mysterious seeds that grow a crop. A plant grows differently depending on its biome, so exploring different regions turns up different produce. Breaking plants yields new crops, and shears can collect some of them to decorate a base.

Most animals drop meat such as beef, mutton, chicken and calamari, and zombie pigmen drop hellish chilli. Eggs, milk and sugar gain extra recipes, and bowls serve several soups. Cooking follows a simple three-step process to produce a cake. Glass bottles can be filled with one of three juices, or with cactus juice when a player right-clicks a cactus with a bottle.

The mod is built on the existing vanilla mechanics of the beta rather than replacing them. It requires FarnUtil and StationAPI, which must be installed alongside it. Foodies runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files target the beta only, and snapshot builds are published. The code is released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 or later, so the project is open source.
