Child Sims will be now able to enjoy Quick Meals again!
○ Who doesn’t enjoy a good bowl of cereal?

In my game kids don't have it either. They only have the option to get leftovers, hire staff or open the fridge. This is really annoying because I always make my kids eat cereal for breakfast from the quick meals.

I can confirm that this is the same in my game.  I did add a microwave and a cooler to my lot and the quick meal options are on those items for children, just not on the fridge. This is on game version PC 1.58.63.1010, no mods/cc and all released packs (ie excludes Discover University ).

Best regards,

@crinrict I am having the same problem since the update this morning. I don't have them for kids OR adults. Sucks for my broke sims lol!

[crinrict]

@JulietJuly22 Works fine for adults for me. Did you test other adults ?

[JulietJuly22]

Yeah, oddly enough when I switched houses, I had the option. Then when I went back, the adults in the first house had it, too. But still not for kids (I had to try lol).

@JulietJuly22 Wonkyness :D

For those who use Mods: I added a Bug Fix for this to my Random Bug Fix Collection.

Quick workaround for players with Outdoor Retreat: children can still grab quick meals from the picnic cooler boxes.

Adults have no problems with this in my game.

Thank you for the Bug Fix. This "Quick Meal Fix" is not in the File for Simfileshare, but only in Drop Box and Google Drive included.
