So apparently the Grilled Cheese aspiration flags the sim/household as modded

Yea so I created a Natasha Una sim to live in Willow Creek across from her cousin Victor, learned about the Grilled Cheese aspiration and completed the steps (eating 3 plates in a row) and successfully unlocked the aspiration. Now when I went to upload her to the gallery I was greeted with a big blue wrench icon in the upper corner and the "modded" box being permanently ticked. Now you're probably thinking, remove mods and cc, well I don't use cc and the only mods I use are MCCC and NPCC and a doorbell notification mod that don't/shouldn't affect a sim's appearance.
I tested this out for myself and when I deleted Natasha from the household, the flagged icon was gone. When I changed her aspiration to the artistic aspiration and lo-and-behold the flagged icon was gone. So how come something created by Maxis themselves is flagging my sim/household as being modded/cc?

Now to your issue, but test this out first to see if this is correct. Save Natasha to your library with any other aspiration, but not the Grilled Cheese Aspiration. Then start up a new game save, and with your first sim bring up Natasha to CAS, and put her down in the new game save. Since she already has unlocked this aspiration, it should be an option she will still have. You don't have to keep this game save if you don't want to, it was just for testing purposes. If you find the Natasha still has the Grilled Cheese Aspiration, you can just make a note to let others know what is going on. That is if you are wanting to upload her to the gallery.
Well actually I kind of already did test this and the Nat with the Grilled Cheese asp. was flagged, the one without wasn't - I have them both uploaded to the gallery under my name 'AedanStarfang', along with a citation explaining the mod/cc flag status.

If you've used MCCC on her at all she will show up as having CC so it could be that.

Thank you for pointing that out. I will keep it in mind when I upload sims from now on.
I have shared one Sim and apparently there was no problem. The only way to find him, even though everything was base game clothing, hair, etc, was to have CC enabled in the gallery. Most likely because I have a mod that makes skin textures look more realistic than plastic.
I did notice that if I hung paintings by my Sims on the wall and uploaded the house, it got flagged as modded.
I don't use any CC either, and the only mod I have is no mosaic, so that aggravated me.
The issue is probably that others won't find it if they search for lots or sims without CC only.
Sorry for late reply, I DID use MCCC to freeze the weight of another sim and they were flagged as being modded (I thought it was them wearing the Conspiracy Theorist vest that flagged them) so that may be the culprit.
@Admiral8Q Regarding the toilet, there are toilets you can make at the woodworking table when you have a high level of handiness. So they are usually hidden objects. It was probably one of those.
