    I'm looking through the design docs and I'm not seeing anything about Spice Festival samples teaching dishes. I agree that this issue seems to be by design.

HI @PoptartJuniper 

I also don't think this is a bug. There might even be a thread for PC around somewhere where it was deemed by design but I'm trying to get some info.

Usually they learn it if you've eaten the whole portion so since the the sample is not a full portion, they can't learn it.

@crinrict, There is only one festival that offers sample dishes and that is the Spice festival, My sims don't learn from samples, but do learn if you get a plate and your skill is high enough to make that dish. If your skill is not high enough your get a popup says so and so has failed to learn the dish, keep on working on the skill and come back later and try again.

    You do not have to eat the whole dish, only the last bite. You can pick up random dishes NPC's have left, have your sim finish it and they will learn the dish. The samples are set up to be a one bite dish, so it seems like you should also be able to learn the dishes from the samples.

      That actually sounds more like a bug to me than the samples not counting :D

      I'll get back to you when I have some info.
