I like the idea of that hunger mod! It makes it worth farming and cooking even if you prefer to play in peaceful. So that's an upvote from me.
The mob drops one probably isn't necessary with BCG+ w/Cobblemon tho since most vanilla monster drops are dropped from Pokemon. Psychic types like Abra and Elgyem drop ender pearls (and Elgyem even drops chorus fruit without needing to go to the end!), certain fire types like magmar drop blaze rods, the gastly line drops ghast tears, etc. Heck, you can even get froglights as chest loot in swamp structures in BCG.
I WILL say, being able to have a Peaceful mode method to obtain Nether Stars would be great though as a few late game modded items need them.
