[MAC] Sims won't eat

I've read this has been an issue for years now, but don't seem to find answers. My sims in one save just won't eat. Whether the food is on the counter or in the fridge, different foods, newly cooked foods, they just reset and all their actions disappear when they go to pick up the plate or open the fridge. They can eat from the school lunch box, but that's it. Other households can eat normally, but it's just this one household. I moved it to a different house and they can't eat there either... I've tried restarting the mac and repairing the game in the EA app.

Here is about my MAC:

  • @jakubzab Have you tried deleting all the left overs and in the fridge and on your lot and try new food ?

    Any mods/cc ?

    I have a garden so I have about 100+ vegetables in my inventory which I'm not willing to get rid of. There must be a fix (or ima need a refund for this game lmao) which doesn't defeat the purpose of playing? I don't know what cc is, and I don't have mods, never had any.

    OK I sold everything from my fridge (i dont know why I didn't just sell the fridge lol) and they can eat normally now. Is that the best fix after 5+ years?

    Can confirm moving every item from the fridge to a sim's inventory seems to have done the trick. Though I also disabled and enabled simple living from the lot challenges (as I needed to cook a fresh meal with no ingredients to check if it works) and maybe that had something to do with it also. Anyway -- thank you for the suggestion.
