Vanilla Meals
by Mier78
Vanilla Meals adds 39 edible food items for the Forge loader on Minecraft 1.20.1, including bread slices, toast, cooked and boiled eggs, and egg and beef cheese bagels.
What it does
Players who want more cooking options find breads, toast in several states, eggs and bagels in the mod, each made from ingredients a player can gather or craft. The items are grouped as foods that fit different stages of a game, so early and later meals can both be prepared without leaving the same small set of recipes.
Vanilla Meals runs on Forge only, and the 1.0.0 file for 1.20.1 is its only published build, dated 2026-01-12. Because the environment is client and server, the server and every player need the mod. The code is released under All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source.
Key features
Bread and toast
Bread slices, buttered bread slices, buttered toast, burnt toast and buttered burnt toast are all edible items.
Egg dishes
Cooked eggs and hard boiled eggs are added as foods, giving egg-based meals a place in the diet.
Bagel recipes
Egg cheese egg bagels and beef cheese egg bagels are crafted from the mod's recipes and eaten as meals.
Drinks and meals
Mix drinks and a range of meals are included, so food choices do not stop at breakfast items.

How it compares
Burnt Bread is a Forge mod for 1.20.1, client and server, released under All rights reserved and not open source, and it covers a narrower set of bread items. Foglia's Hard-Boiled Eggs is also Forge for 1.20.1 and runs on client and server, but it is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only and focuses on boiled eggs. Block Foods is server-side only, so players join without installing it, and it uses a custom license.
