Maxis apply that generic string to most objects that are supposed to remain hidden. They could not be bothered to write a proper description for it, as it was never meant to be seen. Many objects have multiple versions, such as fruit for instance, the version your sim will harvest and have in inventory with proper string descriptions, and a debug version you're not meant to see in game, with the debug string. It is not a fault or an error, but an implementation made by Maxis. Don't try to delete these debug objects from the game or edit them with S4S, or you sims will have serious problems trying to interact with the object's non-debug counterparts.
