[WORKAROUND] Sim grossed out while eating good food? [ Edited ]

[LadyRenira]

I don't believe I've seen this one yet, so here goes:

My teen sim recently ate a piece of excellent quality fruitcake and got grossed out (and received a negative moodlet) because, really, who the heck likes fruitcake?  Unfortunately, now every time she eats anything, she makes a grossed out face animation while eating.  It's not affecting her moodlets and she's receiving "Fantastic Food" boosts, but for some reason, maybe she's just finding the act of eating gross, I dunno. :P  It appears to be happening on all types of food - gourmet or regular dishes made by both her and another sim (excellent or impeccable quality) and also on food from the fountains or quick meals.  I run no mods.

Thanks!

Update:  I noticed that she seems to only make the gross faces when she's eating while sitting.  If she's standing and eating, all seems well.  She also has the "complain about fruitcake" option in social interactions, but it always clears before she actually does the action.

I've added this back

Here's the workaround again for everyone that's affected

Cook another Gourmet Fruit Cake and have the Sim eat that.That should cure the Sim

Did you try moving her out and back in via manage household ? Or resetting her ?

Hi Support,

My sims are strange when they eat food. They always gesture to eat unpalatable even they cook excellent food. 

Please help to solve this problem.

Thank you.

Could you be having this issue as well: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4-Bug-Reports/Sim-grossed-out-while-eating-good-food/m-p/4624898 ?

Yes, I find the same.

@Sahawat00, 

merged your post. Did your Sim also eat a fruitcake ?

Resetting does not work

[crinrict]

Did your Sim also eat Fruitcake first ?

Just say NO!

Never accept fruitcake from a stranger...

I only noticed this after one of the household had baked a fruitcake. In real life very few people like fruitcake even oldies like me (I think they're full of flies!), so I do like the negative reaction but, once they've eaten the dreaded fruitcake they react badly to almost everything else, no matter how good the quality is.

As noted already resetting the Sim, clearing the cache, even repairing the game all have no effect.
