Assuming you manage to spawn or cheat the cookie into existence, what happens when your Sim eats it? According to crowdsourced data:
| Action | Result |
|--------|--------|
| Eat the cookie | Your Sim receives a +4 Happy moodlet named "Nostalgia for Nothing" (Description: "You remember a memory that hasn’t happened yet. Or was it a patch note?") |
| Inspect the cookie | Triggers a hidden "Solve the Riddle" interaction. No known solution. |
| Leave in inventory for 3 Sim days | The cookie turns into a Spoiled Remid Cookie. If eaten then, your Sim becomes "Embarrassed" for 12 hours. |
| Sell it | Worth §0. Cannot be deleted via drag-to-trash. Requires resetSim cheat. |
