@stbnchristine Good to know about the pricing (as one place I just checked said items are free taken from the warmer) and length of freshness. I have actually not found any items that would not go into the freezer, and apparently they fixed the bug just recently so that the spinach and herbs will go into it also. Yay! I have not played one of my stores in about 3-4 weeks, so I am looking forward to this new tweak. Thank you! 🙂
@SheriGR I know you were going to play with the Lice Cold Freezer soon. Would you mind confirming if the spinach and other herbs are still going into the freezer? Crinrict still had trouble with it today. Please go here and help update/close the bug issue: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/NEEDS-INPUT-GTW-Herbs-amp-Spinach-can-t-be-added-to-Lice-Cold/m-p/7292601#M80947

@stbnchristine I'm sorry to say that just earlier today I coincidentally was working on a build and testing it and thought I would try popping my herbs into the 'Lice Cold Freezer' just because I could now (I had been sent an update from the forum bug report on the freezer about a week ago where someone mentioned that her spinach and herbs now went int to the freezer) ... <breath... sorry> BUT ....it didn't work. They would not go into the freezer. I'm assuming after my experience and reading your post that either: 1. This person was wrong, or; 2. There was a brief window in which it worked that has now closed. Either way, darn.

@SheriGR Wow! That person who said it was working is me. And it is still working. I'm attaching a screen shot of herbs in the Lice Cold Freezer inventory. The tiny little parsley I pulled out is set for sell and I am able to purchase these items from the freezer at my grocery store. In all fairness the pointer does now show a red circle with a slash through it but the item store/sells/buys just fine.

@stbnchristine Weird! Are you still able to add more herbs and spinach? Go figure! I'll let you know if I find it works in a different condition. Is this one on a retail lot? Is there a chance that the lot type where you're adding them effects this dynamic for some weird reason? The lot I was testing on was a vet clinic. I wanted to see if by any chance since customers can buy 'pet treats' from the vet vending machines if they could also sell through the 'Lice Cold Freezer' (that way I could have sold the 'homemade dog foods') also. Unfortunately it did not function - no on e bought from it at a Vet Clinic. Darn.

@stbnchristine I've just confirmed that I'm unable to add the herbs or spinach to the 'Lice Cold Freezer' on one of my retail lots. I won't test in a restaurant since I don't use the freezers or warmers in the restaurants since customers don't purchase from them in restaurants, and owner sims and cooks don't use them (probably because they are linked to retail and add pricing and apparently lock for that purpose as soon as the item is added to them).

@SheriGRThat is crazy. Have you repaired your game lately? I am running tons of CC and gameplay mods so it is not a mod conflict. I can add them on retail lots... see attached picture. I also had my daughter go on her new computer and try it. She can add the herbs too. When she got the new computer she downloaded the game fresh and moved her saves and mods folder. It is weird that the Lice Freezer works for some and not others.
