This is really bugging me because it breaks story lines I create and they look so annoying when they stand and eat their food to me.

Sims will now use the dining table to eat again. Sometimes if I’m in a hurry, I grab a meal on the go and don’t sit down to eat, but sometimes you need to sit down and enjoy a nice meal, you know?
Fixed in Patch 1.67.45/ 1.32
If you're still experiencing this issue, please create a new thread.
Please give details what you're eating if it's still happening and post a picture of your setup.
Good Luck

It's especially annoying when they mac out in front of the fridge when two other sims are waiting to get something to eat and can't because their route is blocked.
The worst offenders are the Landgraab and Goth families. Gallagher Newson (from my gallery) is also particularly annoying about blocking others from using the refrigerator.
