Food Spoiling
by ACGaming
Food Spoiling adds a spoilage timer to food items in Forge, so food in the inventory goes rotten over time.
What it does
Food items held in a player's inventory gain spoilage over time until they count as rotten. The rate and the threshold are set in the config file, and the default config is written out for editing. Food stacks that carry different spoilage values merge in the crafting grid, and the result takes the highest spoilage value of its parts. Damaged tools can be used the same way, applying the highest spoilage of the items combined.
Installation needs only Forge for Minecraft 1.12.2. Food Spoiling runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. It is published under the MIT License as open source, with files for 1.12.2 only, and 1.0.5 is the latest file, dated 2025-10-25.
