A silly question

[SimbaTLion]

I feel weird that I cannot figure this out. But I am almost near complete with the game. Almost all the careers are completed and only one sim left to help, all my skils are maxed out. However, I have quite a few fashions and meals to unlock. Is there something else I should be doing? Thanks.

To learn new cooking ingredients you can either.
1) watch the cooking program on TV.
2) read the paper.
3) read the mag whilest on the toilet.
There could be other way to unlock them.

In order to unlock all the fashion iteams you need to know every sim by 100%.
