Now that we know the next expansion pack is going to be romance themed, this is a desperate plea for a Sandalwood LP. For Rent is stalled without an heir. Sandalwood is named after the flirty incense that helped conceive him. His look is iconic. He deserves this. He deserves the world.

And then take Vegetarian away from traits! I like having veggie Sims but it sucks that it takes up a personality spot.

[@SiennaPineDew]

@@oolydnam yea! And James makes a good point! It’s not like being vegetarian or lactose intolerant is a personality trait the same as like creative or something! I think that it should be some sort of system similar to trait discoveries, or ‘would you say this sim likes fishing’, and stuff like that! I think that would make wayyyy more sense! Or even have it be some sort of whole new system in CAS or somth. But I really also hate that they take up one of three precious slots! Totally agree, and I hope they change it soon.

[@anonymouschicken20]

Rueben's Ruebens would be a funky sandwich shop name.

[@glykera]

You'd have to spell Reuben correctly for that, though.

[@ysharros]

Gives a sim the neat trait and leaves dirty plates everywhere, ensuring poor Reuben is constantly uncomfortable. Classic LP vibes :D

[@erinhm0404]

Reuben should do the grilled cheese aspiration too so he can just summon grilled cheese and it’s the ultimate passive income

[@davibooth4852]

Are those not free?

[@anonknitter]

The home chef hustle waffles and pizza make loads of money, and if you finish the appliance aspiration you get extra servings of everything you cook--two pizzas for the price of one!

[@skyechimes658]

I feel like you should have collected all the gifts from Rueben’s birthday before moving him out and allowed him to then sell them for money - all the other sims got to keep their personal inventory items from the last let’s play, which Rueben didn’t have, they were gifts for him, and Kristoff does NOT need the money, being the wealthiest a neighbor in tiny town and the easiest to make more money with.

[@jmpgl181]

Exactly what I thought!

[@samskeels1691]

Agreed 💯 I was wondering why he didn't keep the gifts

[@JamesTurnerYT]

The other kids gifts were sold in the last let's play, I dont think any of them had their specific birthday gifts. Some did have homework or a gift from Father Winter though

[@berg_ahorn]

it would be so cool if sims could also have a food preference, similar to favorite colors and styles. It would be fun to have sims who are vegan, vegetarian, lactose/gluten intolerant, picky eaters, have a sweet tooth etc.. those shouldn't be traits, they should be preferences

[@EssJessperate]

Yes! They had that in sims 3. You could have a favourite food!

[@V11108]

he kind of looks like aleksa from the channel 'BoyBoy'

[@chaeburger]

I would love it if they revamped the cooking system. They've added tons of new recipes and they've freed the cupcakes, but the menu is so long and bulky! Pies, breads, and cakes are still considered cooking and not baking. I feel like if you have Get to Work, pies, breads, and cakes should also count towards your baking skill. And I feel like we haven't gotten anything new in gourmet cooking in ages. Like, pufferfish nigiri should absolutely be a gourmet cooking dish. I know there are probably mods to fix this, but console players don't get mods. And it's not really game breaking, it just makes your game lag. It seems like an easy change.

[@itsrainingcantaloupes]

This is why I’m kinda salty the baking skill was EP exclusive, it would make so much more sense if the baking skill was base game cause then they could do it this way!

[@bunnyellabell]

​@@itsrainingcantaloupes honestly yeah. i think it's time get to work becomes free and basically base game content. it's my fav early dlc and is really the only expansion i feel comfortable calling an expansion lol but it's very very old. it's time.

The food you buy at stalls always disapear if you stop eating it, so it's impossible to re-sell them

[@byagi]

Re: challah, I think it’s fine to use it when you need money for things like half-walls, wallpapers etc. but it does make it too easy and boring imo. I really like the idea of the pop-up kitchen around San Myshuno!

[@itsrainingcantaloupes]

Agreed, I think it’s balanced if he is allowed to use Challah, but maybe because of that he *has* to unlock all the San Myshuno recipes (I know he wants to do that anyway, but it’s like swapping one challenge for another?)

[@Mrs.ragnvindr31]

Yeahh for building extra stuff I feel like selling Challah is fair, for the essential tho maybe just do the original ideas, I like that he wants to cook "traditional" food from other world and sell it on his house!

[@nyxitylee2094]

'Should have gotten him the food-selling table from Home-chef Hussle rather than the fridge. He could then use the community grill, stock up the table and sell the food he cooked. [A while later...] Ah. There we go. Grand meals, like Turkey Dinner sold well.

[@JamesTurnerYT]

Well yeah, but that would be much easier, I liked the little extra challenge at the start

[@chaeburger]

I feel like if Krystof could use the sketch pad and the selling wall at 300%, so can Rueben

[@melinaalba63]

I feel like he should go into gardening, but only like one plant of each you could need, so not to sell the plants, just for ingredients. And maybe fishing? He could even get the meat wall, though i dont know what you need to get it. I think that would be fun so its not "just" cooking food and selling it but maybe becoming an "organic, home made food stall/ small restaurant" at some point. You could even build him a little restaurant attached to his house, similar to the café you did for "For rent"? But maybe more rustic, so the stall fits in. There's a lot of possibilities, I'm loving this 😍😂 And i think its fine for the start to only sell the expensive stuff, but when the house is a bit more developed, maybe just go for stuff thats fun, like the pizza and waffles or only certain types of food to give the stall a "theme" or something like that

[@itsrainingcantaloupes]

That would be smart, maybe for gardening as an extra challenge he could have to wait until the sibling that’s skill is gardening establishes a little community garden in the middle. (Like she could have her own personal garden, but contributes one plant of each to the community area) so then the siblings could “work together” in a way

[@jessicamorales1556]

Having a café or restaurant attached to his house is a great idea! ❤

[@daisyjo88]

Yes! Cooking with excellent quality produce increases profits. I added the simple living lot challenge to my tiny town - seems like a pain, but it’s actually more fun for me that way.

[@sarrmon_]

Rueben being the stereotypical asshole hipster chef you meet in the food industry is killing me. He looks cool but really is a neat freak who hates silly behavior 😂

[@vincentlevarrick6557]

OMG YESS! I immediately jumped to the comments to see if someone else was on my level. 😂 The tooltip even tells you when you hover over it, that being inspired (creative) helps with cooking.

[@irishduchess7577]

This was a rough episode in terms of frustration with the creative, being inspired, neat sim surrounded by mess lowering his mood

[@skypie8550]

You should add a vault into the community area for now to 'collect donations' from each household so that whatever money is in the vault can be used for the community area

[@elizabethwillingham4610]

[@tabytastick]

The answer is No, you can not resell or keep food stall food at festivals. You either eat it right away or it disappears. Even if you sit with it. The plates are made to disappear to prevent dirty dishes everywhere after the festivals end.

[@cozy.matcha]

new spinning way is so cool

[@alicebailey1314]

Dunno if you know but, if and when we come back to Reuben, I found out if you cook and have other Sims eat your meal during any event, it counts for the dinner party aspiration. Was a surprise when it worked because I hate that part of the aspiration to HAVE to do a dinner party to complete it but for some reason it works 😁

[@starsxchaser]

As he levels up, I would like to see Reuben selling items from each skill level

[@susenkrogh]

Baked alaska sells for real good money also grand meals are not too shabby to profit from.

[@susenkrogh]

@@hugo_dummy yeah i believe its 7 or ten not completely sure but its so worth it and with the completed aspiration from home chef hustle and prepped ingredients you get one for free too thats how I mostly founded 10 lots now in newscrest.

[@charitycodes]

The alien pizza is pretty good too. You need to grow quill fruit or some other alien fruit, but you can get a mixer and a pizza oven and put them on your stall. Cook and sell at the same time. You can get quill fruit from the grocer sometimes. It's more likely on Saturdays with the Finchwhick Fair.

[@nitsirkroy]

I love how at 16:55 James talks about being able to sell individual portions on the home chef husel table forgetting that he showed us all how to grab individual servings to do the same thing a few years back LoL I still use that trick when my sims are doing something simylar. Thanks James for the tips man, much appreciated

[@ladypegasus13]

If you complete the aspiration from home chef hustle, you can mark up by 500%, with a bonus trait. Which works for that sim on all street selling items.

[@moominesque]

Higher level pizza is good, and it's actually 'hands-off', so you can make pizza and something else on the cooker at the same time.

You can sell food you packed in a sack. Just have to unpack it first. Would love to see a foods of the world type stall. Maybe keep a dish you know sells well and then sell only discovered foods. All the City Living foods, Dine Out foods, any of the foods that you have to learn by eating.

You can't buy something outside of a lot and stop eating it. The game auto cleans it up. If you're on a lot, you can set it down and put it in your inventory. They changed that a long time ago. Sometimes, you can order to go and it works that way. If you drink a bottle of nectar off lot, it will make it disappear even if there are more services left! 🤣
