I've been thinking about trying FEY, but I tend to be wary of change and am already accustomed to using Dizzy's leftover hacks to handle foodly things. For anyone that's tried both, is making the switch worth it?
It depends on your play style. I have several families I play differently. For the "micromanaging" lots where I can make sure that there will always be leftovers for sims that escape my attention, I love Dizzy's hacks. For my more hands-off-ish lots, though, they're pretty much useless, because I never get any leftovers. For these lots, FEY is a lifesaver. Especially for players like me, who loathe face stuffing with a passion.
Hm. I think I'll just have to try it out in my test neighborhood. Thanks for the input. :)

For more micromanaging lots, Macrotastics still eliminates the need for leftovers by micromanaging the system far better than you would ordinarily care for, using all the carefully calculated, terminally anal rules that I apply to my own game. Once you understand what it's doing, there is simply no substitute for Macrotastics if you are terminally anal about things.
True. But for families with children/teens, I still like to have a variety of meals in my fridge for the petty "Eat [whatever]" wants to make room for "Do homework" or skilling wants. It's much faster to pull a half-eaten hamburger out of the fridge than making a friend.
By the way - yesterday, sim A (university lot, but no dorm or greek house) made a FEY conducted group meal, and sim B, instead of waiting for food, went to the fridge to prepare a single meal. When the group meal was ready, sim B left the unprepared food on the counter to grab a plate. I guess this was only an outlier, just thought I should mention it.

You probably didn't update. Single meals are never prepared under Macrotastics now if you have OFB and can Make Many. Under present conditions, such a collision would just result in extra food in the cache, which is harmless.

I noticed that. Nice feature Pescado, it is something I always wanted my sims to do without me telling them to :P
