Thanks @GirlFromIpanema , I clicked me too on the bug report and made a note.
I wanted to share this thought here too: it seems like, in my game, it's random whether the other sim does a cooking animation, a reading cookbook animation, or a "stand there and talk about food" animation. "Stand there and talk about food" feels buggy, and maybe it is, idk, but in the end they do end up producing the extra servings that you should get from "cook together". So it's possible it's just a poorly designed alternative animation.
(I feel like if it's by design, you shouldn't have stand-and-talkers helping to cook unless you have at least 2 or 3 sims doing cooking animations already. People definitely hang out in my RL kitchen and helpfully argue about garlic or shellfish while a couple of people are actively cooking. But not if I'm the only one actively cooking. Or if they do, then that kind of help I don't need!)
