I'm not sure if this counts as a bug but it makes gameplay for me rather difficult. My sims are obsessed with the food stalls. They can't walk past one without trying to buy something to eat, even though they have just eaten and hunger is full. They not only overeat but it drains my household budget significally, especially when I visit festivals with larger households where I can't monitor every single sim constantly. I recently visited the Humor and Hijinks Festival with my family of six and it cost me a couple hundred simoleons because they kept buying food at the stalls. I tend to not go to festivals at all or only with a single sim to avoid it.
This doesn't only happen with the families I'm currently playing but also with families I never played with at all in my current save (e.g. the Bjergsen family) and townies. A lot of them have put on a significant amount of weight because of it. I added a photo of Bjorn Bjergsen for reference. I haven't played with this family at all until now.
I don't mind one or two sims getting chubby (not everyone can keep a flawless figure throughout their lives ) but it gets annoying if the majority of them suddenly turn obese.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Please update your game @mljones88 @KonekoFoxglove
This was addressed in todays patch.
Taking feedback if it's better
Festival, anyone?
- Going to a festival, but worried about gaining weight? No worries, Sims will no longer continuously order and eat food at the food stalls. If you’ve already packed on those pounds… exercise, exercise, exercise.
Good Luck

Hi Crin! No, I have never used mods or cc in my games, so that's not the cause.

It's not something I'm seeing in my game.
Is this a game you stared before ore after CL ?

I started it after CL. I'm currently playing with aging off. I'll try repairing it, maybe that helps.

What traits does your Sim have ?
I do see my Sim go to the stalls and eat but not that much and I haven't seen any fat townies
Good Luck

I used mostly artistic trates like "creative" "art lover" and "music lover" or traits like "genius", "self-assured", "ambitious", "outgoing" and "neat".
One of my sims is also a "food lover", which would explain why he likes to eat at the stalls, but all the others aren't.
I haven't used "glutton" in this file yet.

Reading at the forums and elsewhere, it looks like you're not the only one
I've added this.
