Natural Cook
Lifetime Wishes: Celebrated Five-Star Chef, Culinary Librarian, The Perfect Garden, Bottomless Nectar Cellar
I think every household should have a Sim who is a natural cook. This trait is good, very good. It will boost the quality of all food they cook. Since the 8 hour great meal moodlet is so long-lasting, a meal made by a natural cook is great for a long day at work.

Considering I lost my gardener to a house fire, I also must state this. The natural cook will never burn down the kitchen. Food won't burn either. This is a huge perk. Natural cooks can also learn to make foods they eat out in the world. My chef learned the ambrosia recipe from television. My other non-chef Sim spent a long time never learning any recipes from cookin' cable. This is with level 10 cooking and never having read a cooking recipe book. While we've confirmed any Sim with the cooking skill can learn a recipe from television, Natural Cooks may do so more frequently.

Game Description

  • Your Sim can learn the cooking skill faster than other Sims.
  • Your Sim can easily make higher quality food!
  • Your Sim will never cause a fire when cooking!

My natural cook, skill level 8, forgot the ratatouille in the oven and burned down the kitchen! And she doesn’t have the absent-minded trait, she doesn’t have a hidden pyromaniac trait, etc. Now, I’ve been playing natural cook characters for a while and this is the first time one started a kitchen fire, but it IS possible. She was pregnant at the time with two toddlers to look after, so maybe she was distracted? I’ve never known pregnancy to change a Sim’s personality but maybe it caused a glitch.

I still think natural cook is a very useful trait, but I’d keep an eye on pregnant sims. Maybe have them make sushi or something that doesn’t require an oven.

No Sims were ultimately hurt in the fire but it did set them back. They wanted to buy a bigger house!
