Tomato
by Nik121
Tomato adds tomato plants, a tomato juice and a pasta cooking system to survival play on NeoForge, with an infinite tomato item among its foods.
What it does
A new crop grows tomatoes over time, giving players a farming source for the mod's foods. Tomatoes feed into a cooking system where pasta and tomato dishes are made, and the mod's food items restore hunger when eaten. The mod is aimed at survival worlds that want more farming variety.
Tomato Juice is a versatile item used in crafting, and combining it with pasta yields a dish that restores more hunger than the individual ingredients. Dough is used to cook pasta in a furnace, and hearty dishes are built from these pieces. The mod runs on the server alone, so players join without installing anything.
The release targets NeoForge only, with builds for 1.21.4 and 1.21.5. The latest file is 14.0.0 for 1.21.5, published on 2025-05-03, and the mod was first published on 2025-04-19. Tomato is licensed as All rights reserved and is not open source.
