Small improvement idea for Foodie and Cooking
So, as I sat there turning the leftover Taco Meat into a Taco Salad tonight for dinner, I thought about how I have a lot of foodie friends who don't like leftovers. Like, at all. They very rarely make dishes that don't have pre-planned servings, etc.
It got me thinking that it might be interesting to give foodies more reactions than just "was it excellent" Maybe foodies get bored or tense if they have to eat leftovers for more than one meal in a row.
And then I thought, to work around that, there could be a "Repurpose Leftovers" interaction that unlocked once your sim got to a certain level in cooking - maybe level 5, like the gourmet cooking. It would only make a single meal, and your sim would still take a little bit of time at the counter "dressing up" the leftovers (maybe use the cutting board animation) but not as long as cooking a full meal, and it could be done without a stove. And Foodies would use that autonomously when they went for leftovers, maybe.
I don't know, it's an idea.
