"Petit Breeze" Not Working Properly

So I got the outdoor fridge for my lot. Problem is, when I click on it, it only gives me the option to have a quick meal and to open it and look at the contents. Can't cook unless I click on the stove or something. Also, when I put food in there it spoils as quickly as if I'd left it out. Which probably means it isn't working or something. Its as if it isn't plugged in. Does it have to be against a wall of some kind? Does it have to be in a room or something? What is wrong with my fridge?

It's not the Petit Breeze, it's having more than one fridge on your lot that happens even if you have more than one full-sized fridge. If you check your main fridge you'll find the leftovers are spoiling almost immediately in it as well. The game should recognize each fridge as a separate container, but it doesn't, if you put something in one fridge it will show up in all the fridges on your lot no matter which fridge you put it in originally. For some reason this causes the leftovers in all your fridges to spoil. WHY having more than one fridge on your lot causes all the leftovers to spoil is a mystery to me, though. Seems more than one fridge on your lot transforms all of them into backpack-type containers and, of course, you know how fast food spoils in your backpack.

Bet there's a mod to fix that glitch, but I just work around it by not having more than one fridge on my lots. That's a real pain when you want an outside fridge for your B-B-Q area for convenience. As a result, I rarely have B-B-Q areas anywhere but right outside the kitchen (not always the most desirable place).

As far as the "click on it" problem, I'm clueless, but I think it's a separate issue from the food spoilage.
