Can you do the work of a Culinary?

@stbnchristine Haha... yes, I do the same thing! And dishes stay fresh longer in the freezer - plus the freezers are connected if you have more than one on the lot, like with refrigerators. When my sims are cooking in the store or at home  for the purpose of selling at the store I snatch the dish up up and drag it to the freezer before they grab a serving and spoil it for selling... Discovered why it works this way last week (I used to think I needed to block access to the freezer to make sure the household didn't take the items to eat... nope). You know how when you add food to the freezer in your retail store you don't have to mark it for sale, it does it automatically? If you drag something from the freezer in your home (if you add a "Lice Cold Freezer" in your home), it marks it as for sale and if you drag it out to the counter at your home you cannot choose 'grab a serving'... but you'll see a price tag. I wanted to use the food they had made for a demo/testing of a room, so in order to make that food  (which I had stuck in the freezer at home) usable to serve in the room I stuck it in one of their personal inventory, had that guy go to the store the family owned, and there (on the retail lot, not at home) it would offer the option 'set not for sale' ... which returned the option to grab a serving. So I fixed all the food to allow 'grab a serving' on the store counter, dragged them back into his inventory, then took him to the lot with the room, added a refrigerator there and dragged them into it to store them, then pulled the food out to serve at the dinner in the room the 'next day' in the game. Love those freezers, though!

@stbnchristine I don't use the warming racks. Can I ask you... Can customers purchase directly from the warming racks like they can from the freezers? Also, do items added to the warming rack not get marked for sale automatically and still work for serving instead (like at that party or in a store) until/unless you selected them and chose 'mark for sale'? Also, do items last longer in the freezer than the warming rack (for some reason I thought I remembered that this was the case and part of why I just went with the freezers in the beginning)?
