Just A Baguette
by purejosh
Just A Baguette, a food mod by purejosh, adds one edible item that restores hunger and saturation, with crafting, farmer trades and villager breeding behavior.
What it does
The baguette restores 15 hunger points, which is 7.5 drumsticks, and 18 saturation points. Its effect is modeled on eating three bread at once, so it stays close to vanilla food balance. The mod also adds three Wheat Hay Blocks in a horizontal row as a crafting path, and it inserts the item into several vanilla loot tables.
The item sits alongside other small mods rather than replacing a larger pack. Farmers sell emeralds for it as a trade, and the mod adds villager breeding mechanics that use the baguette to make villagers willing to breed. The author states the goal was to avoid overproduced mods with simplistic segmented features and to let players curate a pack without editing config files.
The mod is client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 15 release versions, 1.18 – 1.21.11. It is not open source and is distributed under a custom license, though source code and an issue tracker are linked.

What the author says
Just A Baguette adds literally one item: A Baguette. Why? Why not! This mod is intended to be used alongside my other micro-mods. I aim to combat bloated, overproduced mods with simplistic, segmented features. Curate your own pack without editing confusing config files!
