We have orange juice, but...


where are the oranges? We have lemons, apples, grapes, even bananas and pears with the base game. We have avocados with Selvadorada, great! But we still do not have oranges :/ We neither have oranges at Sims 3, until that premium package that I did not bought because, at those days, premium stuff was really expensive. For me A is for Apple and O is for Orange. Yes, we all want many stuff, maybe we want all the world in one game. I know, it sounds silly, but the absence of this fruit intrigues me :D

    We need many more harvestables. How in the frig do my Sims make a garden salad without lettuce? Or cucumbers? We have blackberries, but not blueberries? I want peaches for peach cobbler. I have mods for all of these and more (thank you so much icemunmun and Brazen Lotus!), but I would love to not have to rely on modders.
    This is a big reason why I'd like to see a Farming/Country Living EP. They could add so many more fruits, veggies and spices. They could also add rice, barley, wheat and oat.
  • This is a good point. It would be easy to add this. Some of the worlds are already suited to growing oranges. (Oasis Springs, anyone?)

    As for juicing and smoothies, I'd like to see them such as in a broader pack with other activities. I agree that we really have room for farming. We don't have many of the large-scale crops such as corn, beans, wheat, oats or barley. As someone else mentioned there are still some fruits that are missing. Mango, anyone?

    Modern farms also harvest solar and wind energy which sounds like it would appeal to the team. (Power your own off-the-grid lifestyle and sell any excess energy).

    Anyway, yes, I'd also like to see other types of juice. That seems easy to add. I know they polled us in the stuff pack poll. Something like that might do better in a different pack. Farm-to-table seems like an obvious theme along with the animals.

    Strangely, I did not realize this until you said something. Now it is like yeah, there is no oranges.

    Is there apple juice though? Or grape juice? Or am I just so silly as to not find these two juices in game.


    Haha yeah we need oranges, but also apple and grape juice.


    There is sparkling apple juice with Dine Out, and I suppose nectar being like wine it’s maybe made from grapes.

    If you aren't opposed to mods:

    At some point, I was in the process of installing all of the mods from that CC creator. I ended up giving up as there are so many. It's really nice, though, that some freely share extensive work such as this - how much moolah did EA miss out on by not creating these things themselves? Puts a smile on my face.
