🍎 Rotten Apple

Curse any mob with a single bite.

A Minecraft datapack that adds corrupted apples with the power to zombify, heal, and transform the undead mobs. Eat a Rotten Apple near a mob and watch it succumb to darkness — or use a Golden Apple to reverse the curse.

Requires the companion Rotten Apple Resource Pack for custom item models.
