Description
THIS MOD IS NO LONGER MAINTAINED
I don't play this game anymore or work on any mods. You are completely free to take this mod and create an updated or improved version of it. I can add links to mods that are directly related to this one, just mention them in the comments.

- - -

This mod is now available for singleplayer too: Workshop ID 499311089

-
This mod completely rebalances all the food in Don't Starve Together (100+ items) - meats, fruits & vegetables, cooked food and others. That includes their hunger, healing and sanity values as well as their spoil rate. It brings a bit more challenge to the game and forces you to put a though into your food gathering techniques.

This mod also disallows using ice as a filler (except for Ice Cream and Melonsicle) and more than one twig in any Crock Pot recipe that allows using twigs. Any recipe that disregards these rules will result in cooking the Wet Goop.

You can no longer feed the bird in a cage meat.
Instead, bird can now drop an Egg at 1/3 chance when fed any kind of edible food.
- Feeding it with regular seeds also gives you 1/3 chance to drop Guano.
- Feeding it with fruits & vegetables drops 2-3 specific seeds.

Additionally this mod changes priorities of certain recipes to avoid cooking unwanted food
(e.g. Turkey Dinner instead of Mandrake Soup).


I advise using the "Display Food Values" mod.
Constructive feedback is always helpful.

August 20th - Mod has been updated. Check out the change notes on the right!

I mostly used DS wikia for the stats and proper names, it's more organized than looking in game's files. I will try to finish the final version of this mod if I get my hands on it and make it super simple to edit values of any food items. Hopefully this month.

hey mate, i try to make my own food overhaul to make the game a bit more challenging by removing the healing from food items for example. could you help me and tell me where to find the relevant food item files in the data? cant really find them at all and would be happy if you can help me :)

Some time ago, I was working with my friend on a version where you can simply open text document and set any food value you want for any kind of food item. Although I got bored of the game and lately I'm too busy to finish the mod.. I want to get to it, but there are much more important priorities at the moment..

Can I recommend the idea of just removing food healing all together? It would encourage the use of health regeneration items, tents, etc. to regenerate rather than just having a bunch of food to heal you.

seems to me that Foliage (that spawn in caves) buffed too much, since on every corner its spawned this mod turned from trash laying around to quite good pick up for hunger killing, i would make it that it would give 1 hunger instead of 2, that way still being garbage but with benifit.

the balance of the food now seems like it just part to recharge hunger meter, while it gives some cute increase of health and sometimes sanity, meat balls spam continues..

That is strange, since any food that a bird can eat has 1 to 3 chance to drop you an egg. If you give it 9 seeds, it should statistically give you 3 eggs and 3 guanos..

Don't you receive ANY eggs even after like 20 tries? Then there must be some other problem.

I really do like what this mod does, but the only thing I don't like is how impossible it now is to get eggs.The birds I catch, to the best of my knowledge, do not eat any sort of cooked fruit or vegetables. When fed raw fruits and veggies they only give seeds plus the seeds for that specific food item. Either being able to feed birds meat to get eggs needs to be put back in, or the chances to get eggs needs to be uped drastically. I really do like this mod, but now this also makes birdcages quite useless since I can never, ever get eggs to make crockpot food that needs eggs or gunpowder.
