I'm seeing this with eggs as well. Looks like it may just be the either store bought eggs or just the ones that are given to your sim.

Animal products seem to be hit/miss for what has descriptions. I'm also assuming that something in my fridge with no description is spoiled because "clean out spoiled food" is available but I don't know what it is.
It's missing the name, quality, time until spoiled, and any description that may be necessary. Meat, Eggs, and regular milk do this for me (not 100% on the milk but definitely the other two). Green Eggs, Fire Milk, and Flour are all fine.

What happens when the bug occurs? After finishing errand, I recieved items. Mousing over them, showed nothing in discription. I have had same issue with other errands.

As I was recycling items in recycler, the list of my items showed these mushroom jars. 1st one in list discription said: "DEBUG" scrolled down the other jar was listed as something mushroom. (sorry dont remember whole name). Also, with the egg no discription, even when you get more eggs, those egges without discriptions stay blank while in stacks of all.

@LilSnakeHipsI've noticed this as well with things like Eggs and Meat received from errands or gifts. No description and no expiration date. It's like they are giving us debug stuffs instead of regular items. This seemed to happen after the hotfix but I can't be sure as my game just seems to get buggier every day I play.
