About this Mod
Optimal Eat mod
This mod automatically stops eating once you've fully used an item.
In vanilla minecraft, you can continually eating a food item, even when you've fully used it and you only stop once you receive a packet from the server (which can take a bit of time as many high ping players know).
This mod was specifically designed for pvp gamemodes like UHC, OP and DiamondPot where eating downtime needs to be at a minimum!
