PufferPuffer
by lluk
PufferPuffer lets a player cook pufferfish into soup, which reduces the chance of food poisoning when eating the fish.
What it does
Pufferfish can be cooked into a soup with PufferPuffer, a Fabric mod for Minecraft 1.20.5 – 1.21 published by lluk. Raw pufferfish normally causes poisoning when eaten, and the mod gives players a way to prepare it into a soup instead. The soup is made from water, so cooking reduces the risk but does not remove it entirely: poisoning can still happen after eating it.
The mod requires Fabric API and Fabric Language Kotlin on Fabric. It is released under the MIT License and is open source, with its source code and issue tracker publicly available. Files cover 1.20.5, 1.20.6 and 1.21, and the latest Fabric build is 1.0.0 for 1.21, published on 2024-07-16. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too.
