[HCHSP] Can't use Lactose-Free Batter

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? Français
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.101.290.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have Lactose-Free Batter in your inventory or fridge inventory, then, with the "Prepped Ingredients" option checked, try to prepare waffles or any other recipe require batter.
What happens when the bug occurs? Can't cook anything if I don't have batter, even though I have Lactose-Free Batter in inventory. I can't cook any recipe using Lactose-Free Batter. This prepped ingredient is of no use.
What do you expect to see? For my lactose intolerant sims, I want to be able to cook waffles or any other recipe require batter if I have lactose-free liquid batter in my inventory.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No

‌

Is this a bug or a poorly thought out feature?

    @Lilyputienne Is this with the Simple living active and does it work for lactose containing batter ?

    There's an issue where some ingredients are marked as debug and hence making them unusable. You need to repair your game to see if that makes a difference,

    @crinrict Thank you for your return.

    It works for lactose containing batter.

    I removed the Simple living trait and repaired my game, but still can't make lactose-free recipe with prepped ingredient in my inventory.

    @Lilyputienne  You're right. I also tested it in my game and with Simple Living active, the Lactose Free Batter can only been used to make Lactose Free Yorkshire Pudding (Cooking menu) and Lactose Free SimCity Cheesecake (Gourmet cooking). Waffles are not included.

    I tested on PC, without Mods, with cache clean and game repaired.

    None of the waffles appear as lactose free so it might be design and not a bug but they could have included a lactose free waffle :D

    Sure, especially since we can prepare Lactose-Free Batter, which cannot be used, except for Lactose Free Yorkshire Pudding and Lactose Free SimCity Cheesecake. Too bad !

    @gooochyeee - I don't have any Lactose Intolerant Sims, but that sure sounds like a nuisance. I agree they should have options for it. Bad enough they miscoded the Plain Waffles as not Vegetarian, but to have no waffle options for Lactose Free Batter? Very unfortunate oversight. Seems they need to do some tweaking on the new cooking options.

    Super annoying, I can't make any of the cakes for my lactose intolerant sim... 🙁
