Grilled Cheese (aspiration)

Grilled Sandwiches are so delicious. Grilled Sandwiches are sooooo delicious! They are really quite wonderful to eat, due to their high degree of deliciousness. Grilled Cheese Sims realize these three important truths about life, which are really just the one truth, when you think about it. In any event, they just love to eat grilled cheese.

Grilled Cheese is a secret aspiration introduced in The Sims 2: Nightlife, The Sims 2: FreeTime and The Sims 4. Grilled Cheese Sims only desire to eat grilled cheese sandwiches all the time. They want to eat, serve, or prepare grilled cheese sandwiches for other Sims. They have fears of burning grilled cheese sandwiches or eating spoiled sandwiches. Other than the grilled cheese-related wants, they also want to purchase kitchen appliances and learn cooking skills.

Enabling the Aspiration
Grilled Cheese is a 'secret' aspiration, and as such, it does not appear as a selectable option when a Sim is created, grows into a Teen, or begins his/her junior year at university. Once FreeTime is installed, though, Grilled Cheese can be chosen as a secondary aspiration.

The only way to obtain Grilled Cheese as a primary aspiration without cheats is by using the ReNuYuSenso Orb. It is not available on the menu of aspirations that the Orb offers, but if a Sim uses the Orb when his or her Aspiration level is below gold, the machine may malfunction, which will automatically change that Sim's aspiration to Grilled Cheese, without the aspiration options menu showing up. The aspiration can also be obtained through the Sim Modder, or another hacked object like the InSimenator.

Grilled Cheese Sims can change their aspiration just like any other Sims (by reaching junior year at university or using the ReNuYuSenso Orb properly).

Special Abilities
Most Sims can only make or serve grilled cheese sandwiches for lunch, but Sims with the Grilled Cheese Aspiration always have the option to cook grilled cheese, no matter what time of day or night it is. While making Grilled Cheese normally requires two cooking skill points, Sims with the Grilled Cheese aspiration can make it even if they have no cooking skill.

They also have two unique interactions. First, they can Talk.../About Grilled Cheese Sandwiches. This interaction will most likely be rejected unless the target is a nice Sim or his/her Aspiration is also Grilled Cheese. Second, they have the special ability to Influence.../Serve Grilled Cheese Sandwiches, whereas Sims with other aspirations cannot select any specific meal when Influencing others to serve food.

The Grilled Cheese Aspiration can also be assigned to a Sim by using a cheat. Activate the code bar (Ctrl+Shift+C) and type in: boolprop testingcheatsenabled true. Then hold Shift and click the Sim. Once this is done click Spawn...Find "Sim Modder" and then click it. A motion-less standing up baby should appear. Then select Aspirations..... and click Grilled Cheese.

Trivia

 * The different life states all share the same limited set of Wants and Fears. Unlike Sims of other Aspirations, Grilled Cheese Sims only roll Wants and Fears that directly relate to their Aspiration.
 * There is only one possible Lifetime Want for Sims with the Grilled Cheese Aspiration: "Eat 200 Grilled Cheese Sandwiches." To keep track of their progress toward this goal, Grilled Cheese Sims receive a positive memory each time they eat a grilled cheese sandwich. Technically speaking, taking the final bite of the sandwich is what triggers the memory and increases the grilled cheese counter. Therefore, the player could have another sim eat most of a grilled cheese sandwich, then have the Grilled Cheese sim finish the sandwich for full sandwich credit. This can be repeated with up to 7 sims plus the Grilled Cheese sim, or more if mods are used to increase the maximum household size. Sandwiches eaten prior to adopting the Grilled Cheese Aspiration will not count.
 * This aspiration is rumored to be inspired by Sims in The Sims 2 cooking this sandwich autonomously. However, it might also be based on the tradition of giving the employees grilled cheese sandwiches to eat when there is a significant milestone at Maxis.
 * Deliberately causing your Sim to get the Grilled Cheese Aspiration is actually a very good way to build up their aspiration meter and rewards points very quickly. Grilled Cheese Sims are very easy to please, especially if their cooking skill is halfway decent. Cooking Grilled Cheese Sandwiches a few times and serving them to other Sims can quickly boost the Sim into platinum aspiration, and when the user has reached the desired aspiration level and number of rewards points, it's a simple matter to change their aspiration back to whatever the user desires.
 * If a Grilled Cheese Sim is having a date with another Sim, they will roll wants and fears that directly connect with their date rather than their aspiration.
 * In The Sims 2: FreeTime, there is a glitch where having the Bottomless Stomach benefit may cause Sims to lose weight, rather than gain it at a slower rate, when overeating grilled cheese sandwiches.
