[[File:TS4 Sim after eating Plant Matter.png|thumb|A Sim after eating Plant Matter|200px]]In ''[[The Sims 4: Cool Kitchen Stuff]]'', the [[ice cream maker]] can be used to create the ice cream "Plant Matter" (requires level 7 cooking and §47), which will temporarily give a Sim the ''appearance'' of a PlantSim, as well as a moodlet that urges them to spend time outside.<ref>The change can be seen in the [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZCpWfAuij28#t=33 trailer] for Cool Kitchen Stuff, at approx. 30 seconds.</ref> This does not appear to affect the Sim's hair or clothes. This is only a temporary, cosmetic effect, and the affected Sim will not have any special needs.
With [[The Sims 4/Patch 49|patch 49]], true PlantSimism was reintroduced into the game as a temporary [[life state]] with the [[Challenge event|PlantSim Challenge]]. Sims can now become PlantSims by eating a Forbidden Fruit, which is obtained by entering the Mystical Magic Bean Portal Tree. Firstly Sims must collect six magical beans (flirty, confident, sad, uncomfortable, tense, playful and angry) from random Plantsims, who appear occasionally in each neighborhood. They also have to call [[Jasmine Holiday]], a challenge coordinator in order to get a magical stump, where they can put on the six magical beans. When the sim has collected all the beans and has put them on the magical stump, they can water the stump and it will grow into the "Mystical Magic Bean Portal Tree". By entering the tree, Sims can obtain the Forbidden Fruit through answering correctly a text-message short adventure. Once they obtain the fruit, Sims can eat it and become PlantSims or plant it and grow more Forbidden Fruits. PlantSims have two different needs from normal simsSims; a special Water need, which replaces the Bladder need and a special Hunger need, which focuses on sunlight. They also have special moodlets for being out in the sun or in water which boost their happiness. PlantSimism lasts for 5 days and can be reapplied by eating more Forbidden Fruits.
