i don't want to rant to much but for the first time I just timed my sim from the minute she took the cereal out of the fridge until she finished eating. One sim hour - yes One hour to eat a bowl of cereal, probably because she did the usual changing seats, random boyfriend hugging and then following him around. What makes it worse is it appears the cereal is only three or four mouthfuls anyway lol. Seriously EA you cannot think this is realistic. Seriously hope they sort this but have a feeling we are stuck with it.

That actually started with TS2NL. Before then, they would eat and chitchat a bit, but the meal would be over fairly quickly. Especially if your Neatness was 5 or less. Once Night Life came out, meals suddenly took forever. TwoJeffs created a mod that made them talk less and eat more. Was awesome. I still have and use it, lol.

Yeah i remember now? Its been a long time since i played the sims 2
No, the point is your sims automatically do these things. You tell your sim to eat then they 'multi-task' like crazy.
The object of life is not to be on the side of the majority, but to escape finding oneself in the ranks of the insane.

Like I posted earlier it happens to me even if they are alone, or just sitting there eating at the table with no multi tasking stuff going on.

It took the Wiley's (Dina's household) 3.5 hours to have dinner with friends one night.
In TS2 you could go to a restaurant to sit down and eat with a date and that would take less time than pulling a bowl of yogurt out of the fridge and eating it in TS4.
The real issue is that the multitasking in this game is sometimes hardly smart.
Sims shouldn't always wander off to the top floor of a house for the sake of talking to someone on the toilet while they eat.
They need to clean up multitasking.

I do that too and its still takes longer than it should and is irritating.
Clearly you're in more of a hurry than I am ;-) Sorry for your irritation. Perhaps they will improve things.
I think this is a design feature and it should stay. In truth, only the musical chairs bothers me to the point of insanity. But, I would like a mod that lessens the chitchar, and removes the musical chairs entirely. Your daughter really doesn't want you to come talk to her while she's taking a shower.
That way, we'd have a nice choice of taking it slow or taking it fast depending on what we make our sims eat.
