Every packet of starter fruits has the same harvestables

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.106.148.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Get To Work, Get Together, Get Famous, City Living, Seasons, Growing Together, Cottage Living, Cats and Dogs, High School Years, Island Living, Snowy Escape, Horse Ranch, For Rent, Dine Out, Spa Day, Vampires, Parenthood, Jungle Adventure, Realm of Magic, Werewolves, Luxury Party Stuff, Cool Kitchen Stuff, Spooky Stuff, Movie Hangout Stuff, Romantic Garden Stuff, Backyard Stuff, Toddler Stuff, Laundry Day Stuff, Nifty Knitting Stuff
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Buy a couple starter fruit packets, and then open them to find that the results are the same for every packet.

What do you expect to see? Each packet should have a different variety of starter fruits
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

In one save, I bought 20 starter fruit packets and only got strawberries, and in another I bought 15 starter fruit packets and only got tomatoes and bananas. In the save with only strawberries, I never got bananas or tomatoes, or any other starter fruit, and in the save with the tomatoes and bananas, I never got strawberries or any other fruit.

What I got in the first starter fruit packet is identical to every other starter fruit packet purchased after. This doesn't seem to affect starter herbs, starter vegetables, or starter flowers. Those ones still provide a variety of different harvestables in each packet and packets are not identical to each other.

    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Click on a planter box, and select Purchase Seeds, Sleect Starter Fruits, or Starter Herbs. Open Seed packet. Fruits will only give Strawberries and Herbs will only give Parsley.
    What happens when the bug occurs? Instead of giving a variety of seeds, I am only receiving one type. I have tried this with no mods installed, no mods enabled, and tried opening multiple seed packs only to receive the same outcome.
    What do you expect to see? To receive a variety of plants when opening seed packets.
    Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.

    Whenever I open Herb seed packets I only get parsley and whenever I open Fruit I only get Strawberries. I have tried removing all mods and disabling them and tried using a new save and still get the same outcome. I even tried repairing the game files.

    My Sim bought a whole bunch of starter fruit seeds packets because I thought it would be cheaper for making nectar than buying directly the fruits from the nectar machine. She needed grapes or apples. But from all the packets, she got only strawberries!!!!!

    @DancingFlameWolf Here we go again now I. Having this issue but instead of parsley I'm getting nothing but sage. And I really need parsley but can't seem to find it anywhere. 2024 patch 1.95 and it's crazy how many issues I had to report as of late and my game just crashed

    I've been having this issue for a while, I gave up on using seed packets and buy produce from the stand in Henford-on-Bagley for anyone who has Cottage Living and is getting this bug. 

  • I must've bought well over 50 starter vegetable packets because I've never made it this far in the scientist career and didn't realize I would need carrots in my inventory for slimify serum today, after opening them all I have 99+ potato, 99+ mushroom, 99+ bell pepper, 12 onion, but not one single chicken picken carrot?! Guess I'll just waste the rest of my shift and go to real life bed.
