Bless you, Butterbot! I loathed doing the "Grab plate-cancel eat" dance. This will be a refreshing change.

This is so awesome! I run a bakery using Ani's Savvier seller mod, and I always wanted to serve single servings to customers instead of the entire plate (because who does that, go to the bakery and buy the entire tray of cake?). And "grab plate-cancel eat" was super annoying! Thanks again!

Brilliant idea! Very useful for gatherings and "packing lunchboxes". Thank you so much for making this amazing mod. I've experienced a minor issue whereby children can't eat certain single servings. Only clean them up or put them away. Has anyone else experiences this?

Glad you find the mod useful.

Do the single servings in question happen to be mac-and-cheese, autumn salad, or waffles?

Hi Butterbot, sorry for the late reply! Yes, those three are the exact culprits.

Good to hear back from you! Children being unable to eat those three foods has nothing to do with this mod, but with EA tagging the foods as adult-only for some reason. There might be some workarounds, such as putting these meals in the fridge, then having a child run "Eat Leftovers", but it has been a while since I've last had to deal with this situation. Hope that helps!

Haha, that's utterly bizarre! EA created fussy eaters. Thanks a lot for explaining. "Eat Leftovers" works perfectly. Appreciate the help and still loving this mod.

Just an FYI for you both. The Set The Table & Call To Meal mod by icarus_allsorts, lifts the restriction on children not being able to eat single servings of Mac & Cheese, Autumn Salad and Waffles.

This is awesome! Not being able to split meals was one of the things that always annoyed me in The Sims 3. Thank you for making this.

I was just splitting up a meal into individual portions. I have Set the Table & Call to Meal, so I can serve once, pause and cancel all the eat actions. It's still a pain. I thought "I wonder if there's a mod to do this." And there is!!!

I usually try things out before posting my thanks, but I'm confident that this will be wonderful. So thank you!
