Ok my problem is my sims prepare and cook the meals (breakfast, lunch, dinner) but once the meal if finished cooking, and they go to serve the entire meal just disappears and then the sim itself does a little glitchy type move

All the posts that I'm able to find that could even remotely help me with this are from MTS, which is offline for maintenance at the moment.
I have some custom foods, but I haven't downloaded any in the past 24 hrs and it was working just fine yesterday so I'm stuck. If anybody has heard of this issue please let me know what needs to be done to fix it.
My sim children are starving and there are no leftovers and they will get fat if all they eat is pizza and chinese lol.
Thanks in advance for any help! It's very appreciated.
