This is such a bummer, I wish our sims could actually live off the land by scavenging and fishing and then cook their food over a campfire. Can't really do historical gameplay for hunter-gatherers. :/ It makes even less sense to have magical marshmallows that you can conjure out of thin air to roast on an off-the-grid lot (this part actually should be disabled!) but there's nothing you can do about the fish you caught.
edit: yep I meant simple living! I just always use both at the same time so I keep mixing them up, sorry about that!
I've got this happening too and I use this a lot in Sulani for my rags to riches shipwrecked Sims.
I'm on Xbox Series S. I'm not sure when it started happening.
