Stew Detective
by Maganoos
Stew Detective shows the effects and durations of suspicious stews in their tooltip, so a player can read them before eating.
What it does
Suspicious stews carry a random effect that is normally hidden until the stew is eaten. The mod displays those effects and their durations in the item tooltip. It is a client-side only mod, so only the player's game needs it. It requires Fabric API and is published for Fabric, across 12 release versions, 1.21.5 – 26.3. The source code is open and the code is released under the MIT License.
Key features
Effect tooltip
The tooltip of a suspicious stew lists the effects it grants, so the player sees them before consuming it.
Effect durations
Each listed effect is shown with its duration, making it clear how long the effect will last.
Client-side tooltip
Because it only changes the tooltip, the mod can be used in multiplayer without a server install.

What the author says
Stew Detective is a simple mod that adds a tooltip to suspicious stews that shows you the effects it has and their durations. This may be considered a cheat on some servers - so do get permission before using it on multiplayer servers.
