Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Purchase a lobster roll, haddock sandwich, or popcorn shrimp from a stall or restaurant.
What happens when the bug occurs? Lobster rolls, haddock sandwiches, and popcorn shrimp replenishes VERY little hunger.
What do you expect to see? I would think that these foods would replenish more hunger than they actually do.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No
I'm not sure if this is by design or not, but I figured that it was worth asking. At least I HOPE this isn't by design, because it's kind of ridiculous. For some reason, the foods that came with Cats and Dogs, namely the lobster roll, haddock sandwich, and popcorn shrimp, replenish VERY little hunger. While this IS noticeable with the lobster roll and haddock sandwich, it's ESPECIALLY apparent with the popcorn shrimp. I find this really odd since there are other sandwiches in the game that fully replenish hunger (banh mi and BLT), and while popcorn shrimp is considered an appetizer in restaurants, it replenishes way LESS than even that! Lobster rolls and haddock sandwiches are considered main courses, and yet they only replenish about as much hunger as an appetizer, maybe even less. As far as I know, this has been a problem in my game since first installing Cats and Dogs.
As of now, because of this, I just can't see it as worth it to learn these recipes.

@crinrict I think this might have been fixed by today's patch? @SimGuruIcarus, confirmation on that?

Unfortunately, no. It would seem that the bug that was fixed was just an issue with serving these foods at restaurants that I was unaware of. All dishes introduced with Cats and Dogs still restore very little hunger. To me, it would make sense for the lobster roll and haddock sandwich to fully restore hunger since there are other sandwiches that do the same, namely BLT and banh mi. The popcorn shrimp, I could see restoring as much hunger as a normal appetizer, but as of now, it restores less than even that. The seafood chowder, I think, could work either way.
