My zoi put some food in their inventory but when they got hungry I clicked on the food for them to eat it. All they did was complain again and go to the fridge to make more food. What a waste! I had to end up selling the food in their inventory.
Hey there, welcome to the inZOI forum!
Whenever this happens with my zois, I have them take the plate out of their inventory and put it on a table. I assume they’re not yet able to take a separate plate of a larger meal stock when it remains in their own inventory. Do you remember whether they cooked a single person potion or a large one? 
- Does this happen with all foods or just a specific food?
- Was it a single portion of food or a big plate with multiple servings?
- Does it work if you have them “Take Out” the food first and direct them to eat it from their hand once they’re holding it?
