About this Mod
More Golden Foods
Vanilla golden apples and golden carrots — but for every other food in the game.
Craft 31 golden food recipes, hunt down 35 enchanted variants and 4 legendary golden stews in chest loot, and eat any of them for tiered status effects. 70 new items in total.
What's in the mod
- 35 golden foods covering every vanilla edible the game doesn't already gold-plate: meats, fish, breads, soups, sweets, and oddballs (golden rotten flesh, golden poisonous potato, golden spider eye).
- 35 enchanted golden variants with 1.75× effect duration, EPIC rarity, and the enchantment glint. Loot-only — they cannot be crafted.
- 31 crafting recipes — surround any base food with 8 gold ingots in the crafting grid, the classic golden-apple pattern.
- Chest loot in 12 vanilla loot tables across 11 structure types — see the loot table below.
- Always edible — eat any of them on a full hunger bar; effects apply regardless.
- Client + server side, no config required.

Effect tiers

|---|---|---|
| Basic | raw meats, raw fish, basic crops | Regen I, 5s |
| Mid | cooked meats, bread, cookie, baked potato, dried kelp, berries, melon slice | Regen I, 8s + Speed I, 30s |
| Elite | pumpkin pie, honey bottle, chorus fruit | Regen II, 8s + Absorption I, 60s + Speed I, 60s |

Quirky flavors keep their character but lose the downsides:
- Golden spider eye → Strength (no poison)
- Golden rotten flesh → Resistance (no hunger)
- Golden poisonous potato → Luck (no poison)
- Golden pufferfish → Water Breathing + Conduit Power (no nausea)
- Golden chorus fruit → keeps the random teleport, plus Speed
Enchanted versions apply the same effects with 1.75× duration.

Note on existing vanilla goldens
Vanilla already ships golden_apple, enchanted_golden_apple, and golden_carrot — those are not duplicated. Everything else gets the gold treatment.
