Can't drag food into the fridge anymore

Hello everyone, 

while I'm happy that I can drag things out of the fridge and into the bin again, I'm a little bit surprised that I can't drag food into the fridge. 

It doesn't matter which fridge I am placing down. It doesn't matter which Sim is selected. It doesn't matter which household I'm playing. 

It just doesn't work for me. 

Right after the latest bug fix it worked. But all of the sudden it doesn't. 

I'm playing on PlayStation. I have restarted the game. It's been happening for the last few days.

    I can no longer drag food into the refrigerator. Even using the “open” function, nothing can be placed in the refrigerator's inventory. Dragging out meals that are stored there works. However, only my Sims can put food back in. Dragging dishes to the sink, trash can, or dishwasher works perfectly. Dragging books to bookshelves also works.

    I am having this issue too (with/without mods).
    I have a mod for claiming ownership of items, and when I use it to claim ownership of meals, I can then drag them to the fridge. The food was in a university dorm, and it had been brought in by NPC roommates. 

    The second time, it was at my sim's parents' house while my played sim was visiting. This time, my player sim made the food at their house, but I still needed to "claim" the food to move it to their fridge. 

    So it seems to have to do with ownership of objects for the player sim, possibly on certain lots. I was thinking it might have something to do with previous fixes for public areas accumulating trash.

  • I have been having the same issue for the last 2 weeks. My sim won’t cook or put trash away/clean dishes. Just waves hand or doesn’t do it. Cannot drag anything.
