📋 About This Mod
Quick mod that makes it so food health and stamina bonus start decaying only when half of it's time is left (and you can eat it again). Also makes it decay twice as fast from that point on so the bonus is completely gone at the same time as before.

With 293 endorsements and 5,834 downloads, it's a simple quality-of-life tweak for players tired of food going bad too quickly.
