The Sims 1
Food Lasts for a Week Mod
I don't know about you,
but when I'm finished with a meal, I put the leftovers in the
refrigerator, and they last for a week or so. And yet our
sims can't do this, so they have to cook All. The. Time.
Well, no more. I've hacked the food so that it
stays fresh for a week. The sims still don't put it in the
fridge, but you can't have everything. :-) This mod alters
the regular meals, the BBQ meals, the pizza, and even the snacks.
Since this mod replaces an in-game object, the file does NOT go in your Downloads folder, the way objects usually do; it has to go into the Objects subfolder of your GameData folder. Your GameData folder is a subfolder of your Maxis folder; look in C:\Program Files (x86)\Maxis\The Sims\Gamedata\Objects, if you installed the game to your C drive.

I've been asked to upload the counter, as well, so here it is. It's the same price as the cheap turquoise counter; I just got tired of turquoise after awhile. Medium wood counter with white top: Cheap Wood and White Counter
At the request of TheNedrane on Reddit, I've also hacked the file that controls the baked goods that came with Makin' Magic. This will make the bread and cakes last for a week.
This also does NOT go in your Downloads folder, but it goes in a DIFFERENT place than the mod for the regular food.
Unzip the folder and put FoodSB.iff in your The Sims\ExpansionShared folder, and it will override the FoodSB.iff file that's inside the ExpansionShared.far file. For most players, this is in C:\Program Files (x86)\Maxis\The Sims\ExpansionShared. Because this is overriding a file that's inside ExpansionShared.far, the modded file has to go into the same folder as the far file for that to happen.

TheNedrane also asked me to hack the turkey to make it last longer. That's controlled by yet a third file, and I haven't gotten to it yet. My health is poor -- I have several chronic illnesses -- so there's a limit to what I can do in any given week. I hope to get to the turkey eventually.
Have fun!
