Also, new development. Just learned that large servings don't appear, but single servings do. It's strange. I don't know what's going on. Also, very sorry for spamming with replies. I just wanted to be as specific as I can and give details to maybe try to place my problem.

@oxemmaruthxo I feel your pain. I went through the same process. If memory serves, this is what I found to be needed when I made food for a themed room I made about a year and a half ago (since the food in it would disappear after upload) and for a bakery I made later. I didn't add the food to the bakery since it was for a challenge and if I added the food it would have raised the price over the budget. There is also a forum where I shared the room and described the process. I will add links to all of that information.
Bottom line, when saving to the library/gallery, to add dishes(food) to a lot you will have to cook them, not get them from debug, if you want the food to remain. Plus you cannot get the food to remain in a room.
Workaround directions:
Workaround note to get the food from the lots with food: I saved a ‘residence-room’ (in the gallery, called “Soul Cake Christmas Food”) with the food but needed to save the room as a residence. This seems to be the only way to get the food (aside from fruit) to upload and download in the gallery. So… you can download the lot with the food, have one sim move out and buy the lot with the food room put the food in their personal inventory, bulldoze and sell the lot, then have them move back in. Use or refrigerate the food right away, though, or it will go bad. A lot of work for food, but maybe not if you don’t have a sim with the cooking skills.
You're welcome to download my food for part of the dishes you may want, but you'll have to follow the 'workaround' directions
Thank you so much for your help! I'm including the link to what you helped me accomplish, if you'd like to check it out! I appreciate it a ton. I'm working on a medieval village and this just helped me out even more! Thank you!
@oxemmaruthxo Thanks for letting me know! Exciting stuff! I downloaded for checking it out, and am so happy the food worked out for you! Enjoy! 😊
