Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
What is your current game version number? 1.68.154.1020

Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Make food and place it in the fridge, save and close the game.
What happens when the bug occurs? Food that a sim makes never expires once it is in the fridge. Some of the food in my fridge has been around for generations. It seems to largely be Grand Meals and Cakes with 1-2 pieces out of them, but I have seen it on other items (that's just what happens to be in my fridge right now). I pulled everything out of the fridge after leaving it in there a few weeks and it does not expire. It just says that the item cannot be sold/deleted and does not have an amount of time left on the food. Happens most of the time but occasionally something expires as expected. Ordered pizzas always seem to expire as expected. If I leave everything out of the fridge and save the game and close, they gain the ticker for how long is left on the item until expiration.
What do you expect to see? Most food should expire.
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? No
Attached is a screenshot of food in the fridge that does not have the expiration count down even though it should.
