I was looking over on Tumblr and came across a post by someone who shared a Sims 2 Wiki article about the fruit juice in The Sims 2.
In case you didn't know, we have a juice extractor, The Main Squeezer 235X, where we can make apple juice, lemonade, orangeade and more, which is great for the gardeners in the game who like to grow fruit and vegetables. I already knew about the pureed boot which is a boot that you can get during fishing. What I didn't know was that if you combine certain fruits and vegetables, you can get different effects, which is really cool. So after 20 years of playing The Sims 2, I've found something else out.
As you will see from this table screenshotted from the TS2 Wiki article, there are a few combinations that give different effects, much like the nectar making in The Sims 3 that gives different nectars:
I did have a look on YouTube to see if anyone else had done a video about this but I couldn't see anything so thought I would make my own.
My Sim earned a random skill point with the Eggplant Juice, had an energy boost with the Pepper Punch and even managed to get to platinum aspiration with the Strawberry Lemonade even though she was nearing a nervous breakdown!
Although I was unable to try out the Orange Juice, Strawberry Juice and Tomato Juice, all of the other combinations seemed to work really well. I really liked the Strawberry Lemonade as having platinum or gold aspiration allows your Sim to use the lifetime rewards, such as the Smart Milk for toddlers.
If you would like to see the effects that different combinations of fruit and vegetables have on a Sim, then check out my video below - the pureed boot is not to be missed!
Let me know in the comments section below if you have ever tried out these fruit and vegetable juices or if, like me, you never knew about them! I would love to know what you think.
