This simple mod prevents you from eating a food item if you aren't hungry enough. You must be missing more hunger points than the food will refill.
This applies to special food items such as golden apples as well. In essence this means potion-giving food items are subject to a global cooldown, which can be reduced quicker if you're performing in-combat actions such as sprinting, jumping, dodging (where applicable), and healing. You must also consider the extended period of satiation brought by high saturation, as it may cause you to not be able to eat buffing food at certain times.
Suggestions on how to similarly limit potions are welcome on the discord.
