{{Quote|A refrigerator is the first stop for any hungry Sim. Cooking skill and appliances will affect the quality of the different meals Sims can prepare. If they don't feel like cooking, they can call for a pizza!|''The Sims 2''}}
'''Hunger''' is one of the basic [[motives|needs]] of a Sim. It is primarily satisfied by consuming [[food]]; not fulfilling this need can result in [[death]]. Hunger also has a strong effect on job and school [[Job performance|performance]]. A Sim who goes to [[Career Tracks|work]] or [[school]] hungry will not do well.

Line 11 ⟶ 12:
Sims have other options of filling their hunger meter as well. If a [[Bar (object)|bar]] is present, drinks can provide a slight hunger boost. In ''[[The Sims: Makin' Magic]]'', Sims can make bread, pies, and cakes. Sims can stock a [[buffet table]] to quickly provide food for a gathering of guests, or simply as an easy way to feed a large family. [[Child]]ren can use the [[toy oven]] to make a pastry that is more filling than snacks from the refrigerator.
 
How well a meal fills the hunger meter depends on several factors. In ''The Sims'', it mostly depends on the Sim's [[cooking]] skill, but is also affected by the quality of the refrigerator. In other games, with more types of food available, it primarily depends on the type of food. In all games, if a stove or oven was used, it will be affected by the quality of that appliance. It can also be affected by the quality and cleanness of the preparation surface, and the use of a [[food processor]]. (In ''The Sims'', a food processor will automatically be used if present and accessible. In later games, if a food processor is present, it will automatically be used for foods that require chopping.) In ''The Sims 2'', ''The Sims 3'' and ''The Sims 4'', some types of food may be more satisfying if the Sim preparing them has a higher level of cooking skill than is needed to be able to make them. In ''The Sims 3'', regardless of what type of food they finishing eating, their hunger need will be fully satisfied. However, moodlets do vary on how much satisfaction they gain from the sustenance.
