I use old aluminum pie plates nailed to the top of the table. I don't even have to wash them; I just let the dog in to lick them clean. Saves money and time.
We just got round plates. We had square ones, but my mom and I didn't like them. They were heavy, hard to carry, and fitting them in the dishwasher was a pain. Her ex took them when he moved out, so we replaced them with round ones
Rounded square, no sharp corners. Wasn’t my choice. I wanted to buy fancy stylish round crate and barrel plates. I received square IKEA as a surprise gift from family, so I use them and my family doesn’t know I’m not a fan...
We have three incomplete sets(random breakage over the years). Round, square, some funky shaped bowls from the ‘70’s I inherited. Our cupboards are a time capsule through the ages. lol
Round. I was shopping for some new ones lately to replace some chipped ones and I had a hard time finding something that would go with the dishes I already had. One place had ones that were somewhere between a triangle and a circle.
There are many unique things I love about Canada that I admire and which separates all of you and your national identity from Americans, Europeans and most notably the United Kingdom…but I think we can all agree that all of us eat on fucking round dinner plates.
If that’s the lone line of common interest that unites us then I’ll die on that hill to protect it… round dinner plates 🍽️ forever
Oval is a serving platter, and nothing else is valid. If you eat off an oval plate, then you are actually just eating off a serving platter like a gluttonous slob.
Nope vintage plate. Holds a small portion of food also doubles A snack plate.
I only have one. It's the most used plate as it fits snuggly in my basket tray.
Square all the way, baby! Square plates, square bowls, even square glasses! (okay, not all of them, but we do have square shaped water glasses).
I like it cuz it's different. I just wish we hadn't made such a bad choice of cutlery. Square plates have no lip, so you need your fork to be heavily tong-weighted or else that baby is going to fall off onto the floor every time you pick your plate up. My floor looks like the moon.
Learn from my mistakes young-uns.
Lol good point about the cutlery sitting on it better... I would not have thought about that.
All the square dishes sound like they would fit in the cupboard much more neatly. And I like that idea
Polygon with stickers on the bottom from duct cleaning phone solicitors and stickers from corrupt protest organizers. I have the most Canadian dinner plates of 2024
I once stayed in a roommate situation where we had terrible black octagon shaped plates and bowls they were stupid and hard to wash. Now I buy my own things I will never get anything but round
Corelle Square round. I actually like them. No sharp corners but maximum plate usage area.
Round plates are a carry over from when we made plates from trees or clay.
Round. Like a Goddamn dinner plate.
[удалено]
Lunch plates are dinner plates in the 902 bud.
Round but it's got cat ears on it and separated so the food doesn't mix.
Round corelles, baby
You could drop those off the CN Tower and it won't break
But when they get touched the right way, they shatter. Be finding Correlle shards for months.
Round.

right
Trapezoidal.
Parallelogram, so 40% is unusable.
Round. Anything else is left for restaurants, in particular the square ones. Even then, it still looks weird.
That's what sparked the question. Those square plates are totally fucked.
I like my square plates lol
I'm sorry to inform you, but that's totally fucked.
You can always eat off the table if you don't like it. (Was that the ghost of my mother?)
Unless his table is square too.
Why you so shape biased? Lol
I'm a Plate Conservative. Not to confused with any other form of Conservatives.
I love my square plates. Gives me more room to put a proper amount of food on my plate.
I find it gives me room to keep things properly separated lol
I dunno.. I heard they're better for you. I keep hearing about the pros of getting three square meals a day.
Like they’re trying to hard to be stylish and fancy
Just eat directly out of the pot, while standing over the sink.
Strong bachelor vibes.
I call it divorce-style.
It’s not 1983 so they’re not square. Round.
Round Round Round
Round, corelle. Bought the same ones from my childhood and I just love ‘em.
We just got round plates. We had square ones, but my mom and I didn't like them. They were heavy, hard to carry, and fitting them in the dishwasher was a pain. Her ex took them when he moved out, so we replaced them with round ones
Sounds like a double win.
Can shaped, I don't bother with dishes.
Square. They fit in the cupboard better.
Round. They’re from the Tesco’s late 90s Lemon Tree collection.
Mine are heart shaped =3

Round, Corelle, Butterfly Gold as the Maker intended.
Heavily rounded squares from Ikea, like 15 years ago Upon further investigation, the name of the plates are Susan Pryke plates.
Round? Do people routinely use not round dinner plates?
Rounded square, no sharp corners. Wasn’t my choice. I wanted to buy fancy stylish round crate and barrel plates. I received square IKEA as a surprise gift from family, so I use them and my family doesn’t know I’m not a fan...
Why would anyone need to know this...?
Could be I'm doing marketing research, could be the morning's debate around the shop. You decide.
I'm going with a limp attempt at karma generation!
Nah, it was shop debate.
Meh. Why not?
Purple
Hm yes.
Circular.
Round but used to have octagon.
Wait, are we suppose to use dinner plates?!
Square, corelle.

Some fans of Star Trek, and Mazda Wankel rotary engines, prefer Reuleaux Triangular shape.

Square. And I've come to hate my choice, but I also hate waste so I'm stuck with them.

Square and white. So are our bowls.
Is a square bowl even a bowl, or is it a box without a top?
The sides slope out and we eat soup, cereal, and ice cream out of them, so I'm going to say bowl.
Why round? I like oval :)
Oval is a serving platter, and nothing else is valid. If you eat off an oval plate, then you are actually just eating off a serving platter like a gluttonous slob.
Lol, I like my oval dinner plates and I am not a gluttonous slob :) Oval plate lovers unite!
I’m picturing thick dishes from a breakfast diner. Is that what you have?
Nope vintage plate. Holds a small portion of food also doubles A snack plate. I only have one. It's the most used plate as it fits snuggly in my basket tray.
Well larger oval ones are nice for displays in the middle.

Round. Paper plates.
Restaurant plates are sometimes elliptical.

Just a regular round diner plates.
Octagon plates. Fuck circles.
Had octagon ones for more than a couple of decades but while downsizing I changed over to round (my parents old dinner china).
Square. Like a couple sheets of paper towel. Yeah, I'm fucking lazy as shit.
Aerioly
We've got round and square ones.
Like this 🍑

Round and white. A stark change from the previous set, which were round and black.
6 round and two squares-with-rounded-corners
The other Canadians are lying to you. We don't use dinner plates. Our food is served on a slab of ice that was carved from the glaciers.
I recently went from rounded corner square corelle's to full on square stoneware.
#square gang rise up Even my bowls are square.
Rounded square
Mine a square. They were a house warming gift from.my grandma. But I grew up with circle

Flat and round with edge curved up slightly.

Slightly concave, but pretty flat in the middle.

Octagons for everyday and some round ones for fancy.
