Hack for canceling out of automated prepare food from fridge?
imyourboy:
Ever since I installed Freetime my Sims won't eat on their own anyway. I have to tell them to eat and I haven't downloaded any non automomous hacks either. Just happened when I installed Freetime.

FT messed with self-feeding in a lot of people's games; other players have reported no problems. In my game, it was an issue for some sims but not for others. Sadly, those who were failing to feed themselves seemed to know the moment I'd decided just to let them stave to death and promptly began eating when necessary. Spoilsports.
I've used Inge's no autonomous fridges, which worked exactly as advertised for me. Currently I'm using Dizzy's "leftovers" array, which can be found among his various "dumps" at Laden Swallow.
Convenient (and sensible, damnit) as it would be simply to return unprepared food to the fridge, since Seasons I've taken to allowing them to proceed with cooking and then instructing them to cram the finished meal back into the fridge for later if I don't want them to eat yet or if I want them to cook something else instead.

I have issues with sims deciding to autonomously make a group meal and not serve it or eat it. They just stand there looking at it for an hour. It's like they were on autopilot and come to once they've set the plate down, then can't figure out what they were doing. If no one is hungry, I have them put it in the fridge for later, but generally someone is hungry in my survival lot. Twelve sims, two of whom are pregnant, eating only fish 24/7. Vanessa needs to grow her ass up and old Beatriz needs to kick it already and I need to finish my building so I can move them to better accommodations. Can't do that while sims are pregnant or doddering. That's one large bridge they have to cross.
For some reason, Teardrop Isle sims don't do this nearly as much, or they'll just make a single meal.

I've seen a lot more instances of sims going off to 'stuff face' since FT. No problems with regular foods, but I haven't seen so much face stuffing in ages, maybe ever.

Jeez, yes. It's like something in the FT coding disconnected the switch that tells them they're getting hungry until they need to 'stuff face' in a desperate attempt not to die. The fridge at my Asylum Challenge household was stacked 4-deep with a queue of would-be face-stuffers all on the verge of collapse. And this was with a group meal of Mac 'n' Cheese sitting right there on the fricking counter next to them! Idiots! Then suddenly - I have no idea what changed, other than my sudden and swift resolution to allow the next asshat stupid enough to pull this stunt to die where he stood - the idiocy just... stopped.
