FoodView
by t3oCorp
Hovering over a food item in FoodView adds a tooltip line that shows how many hearts the food restores when eaten.
What it does
Hovering over a food item adds a row beneath its name, with heart icons that show how much health the food gives back when eaten. The heal amount is shown as hearts, so a player can compare foods before eating them. The information appears only in the tooltip and does not change how food behaves.
The mod has a settings menu where heart icons can be switched on or off, and the tooltip text can be given a distinct color and bold styling. It is a client-side mod, so only the client needs it, and servers run without it. It is built for Babric and targets Minecraft Beta b1.7.3 only, with the author's Station API, Glass Config API and Glass Networking libraries included in the design.
Snapshot builds are published alongside the release files, dated from 2026-02-08, with the most recent update on 2026-02-20. FoodView is released under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license and is not open source.
