Sims eat Prepped Ingredients instead of complete meals

Hello, I am loving Home Chef Hustle but I have just a couple of points to share about it that could use a quality of life update.

I find ever since installing HCH, whenever I tell my Sim to Get Leftovers from the fridge, they almost always choose to eat a prepped ingredient, even though the fridge is full of fully cooked, excellent quality full meals. Why would anyone choose to eat dough instead of delicious chicken stir fry? 

My other point is one that has bothered me for a long time, since I'm always playing Sims who cook. It would save so many clicks if the fridge option Open was always on top. I'm constantly opening the fridge to rummage through what is inside and often have three tiers of options to click through before I find Open.

I also play a lot of gardener Sims who supply fresh ingredients and managing the fridge is always a bit of a headache. I'd be so happy if there was an input for a number of how many of an inventory item you'd like to select. Right now, it's all or nothing- if my Sims harvests 20 spinach and I want to put 10 in the fridge and sell 10, I have to click each one to select them. Would LOVE to just be able to type 10 in some input field to pick up 10 and drag them to the fridge. This option would also be game changing for selling produce to the grocery and garden stalls in Cottage Living. I love these features and just wish they weren't a hassle to use. Less clicks is always better!

    Totally and completely agree with your points! I also play chef's/gardeners a lot. My sims also eat dough, and recently they don't sit down to eat the food either they just stuff their face standing in front of the fridge 😅 I also wish the inventory screen for the content of the fridge could be bigger, you know like the little inventory window for your sim's inventory is quite big and easy to navigate, but if you click 'open' on the fridge, you get a tiny window to navigate in which is another headache for me if I'm honest :D (edit: see pic)
