not a reply but a shirk of sorts:

for my prepared food i make a stockpile which just has drinks and the 'u' for prepared food highlighted. then it's a booze and prep food hall....that works fine for me, it seems.

i would recommend taking a look at how many barrels are allowed on the food stockpile - prepared food stacks can be put in barrels, but not if they are too large - if the prepared food is all barrelled up but your stockpile accepts 0 barrels, then you'll be stuck...

(no need to apologise for your english, it's fine!)

Sand bag stockpiles must forbid all furniture types other than "sand bag" but must allow all materials and quality levels.

P.S. If you don't get this note, let me know and I'll write you another.
It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.
It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.

AND the option "u: Sand bag" (in right lower corner of a list) must be active white.

Prepared food - just a food stockpile with all options forbidden and prepared food (right lower corner aha) active white.
