Rot
by sofried
Rot introduces a decaying item that the author modeled on the rot mechanic of a survival game, and it is meant to be used alongside mods such as Spoiled.
What it does
Rot is a Forge food mod for Minecraft 1.20.1. Its main item is a rot item, and the author advises players not to eat it. Both the server and every player need the mod, since the environment is client and server. Optional support for Farmer's Delight and Spoiled is listed, and the code is released under the MIT License, so it is not open source.
