[FIXED] Sims cook but don't autonomously eat/ cook more/ eat quick meal instead

I found what appears to be a much better workaround.  It seems the Crisponix Budget Dee-lux (both the used and new models), are bugged.  By replacing this model fridge with the Crisponix Adequate model of fridge, my reported issues have improved.  Out of 10 cooked meals, my Sims ate 9 of them.  The 10th meal was interrupted by an Erratic behavior, but I was able to drag this specific meal to the Sim. 

In the Asylum challenge, you're supposed to be using the cheapest of everything (fridge, oven, toilet), but in this case, the cheapest really does seem to be cheap.
