Food (as you may already know) still rots when inside storage boxes/chest/etc., well there seems to be no possible way of removing them from the chest itself without having to go through some complicated breaking, dropping and whatnot. Is there something I’m missing here?
Edit: Console is not a solution, since it’s something you shouldn’t have to touch to remove items. Regardless, console “delete” command ends up deleting the whole chest instead of just the item.
