The Minus Mod
The Minus Mod is a NeoForge joke mod for Minecraft 1.21.8 that adds food, a toaster, ants and a few redstone tools built around deliberately silly ideas.
What it does
Bread can go into a toaster, which turns it into Toasted Bread or Burnt Bread. Butter can be placed on the ground to make a slippery surface that sends players sliding farther, and butter can be turned into Buttered Bread. Cheese, Cheese Curds and Cheese Puffs add a new food source, and Cheese Dusty is an effect that comes only from eating Cheese Puffs. Ash can be created and used to make Gunpowder.
Ants spawn around the world and carry the name Jeff. Ant Blocks can be crafted into pillars, slabs, stairs and walls, and a gamerule makes breathing worse. The mod also includes a Player Identifier Block and a redstone block that detects a player standing in front of it. Those redstone blocks need a redstone update to work. The items sit in a special creative inventory tab.
The Minus Mod runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is published for NeoForge on 1.21.8 only, with release 1.0.0 dated 2026-02-22 and released under the MIT License. The code is not open source.
