Italian Food
by Rayanlupo
Italian Food adds Italian dishes to the game, from focaccia and pizza to mozzarella, taralli, espresso and tiramisu, each giving a short in-game effect.
What it does
Players craft the dishes from vanilla and custom ingredients, and each one grants a temporary effect. Traditional flatbread restores health over time, a savory dish briefly increases movement speed, fresh cheese adds damage resistance, crunchy snacks speed up mining, strong coffee raises attack speed, and a sweet dessert gives a short period of night vision.
The mod aims at players who want a regional flavor in a survival or adventure world. It is a Fabric mod for 1.21.4 only, with the environment client and server, so the server and every player need it. The code is available as a public source link, and the mod is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial 4.0 license, which means it is not open source.
