square is fine for sushi places or modern fine dining, but if i was eating at someone's house and they had those, it would come off as arrogant and pretentious

[Anonymous No.5705240]

>>5705207

theyre just square plates

its not arrogant or pretentious at all

[Anonymous No.5705259]

According to Dave Thomas logic, square is better since that means you didn't cut corners.

[Anonymous No.5705263]

>>5705259
I hope you come around to the fact that round plates are fine.

[Anonymous No.5705265]

I tend to think square plates are easier to store in a cupboard.

For everyday simple meals go round. Going to cook something more elaborate or want to show off to somebody go square.

Presentation is a big deal. Of course if you food isn't good nothing in the world will save it.

There's nothing more satisfying than eating a beautifully plated meal.

[Anonymous No.5705329]

both are fine, depends on what you're plating if you're actually going for impressive presentation

Square plates are tacky as fuck

[Anonymous No.5705800]

Round for regular eating, square for fancy/lots of food on plate

Square is a more efficient space user

[Anonymous No.5705813]

Round is more versatile, but some stuff works lot better with square plates.

But that's wrong, you fucking retard.

[Anonymous No.5706218]

>>5706149
But Anon's right. Say a circular plate is 30cm. The area of the plate is about 700cm^2. Say a square plate is 30cm. The area of the plate is 900cm^2.
That's because the circle cuts the corners out. See >>5705259.

I'm starting to come around to square plates.

They fit on my desk better. And they don't make my OCD/Autism act up as much when like when rounded plates stick over the sides.

[Anonymous No.5707438]

Round plates have been used for discus for thousands of years.

[Anonymous No.5707454]

>>5706218

nig that doesn't mean a more efficient use of space, that means it uses more space.

[Anonymous No.5707467]

>>5707454
The square plate would utilize better the space in a cabinet unless you have circular cabinetry.

[Anonymous No.5707624]

>>5707454
Take eight 30cm plates, four each square and circular.
Put four circular plates as so: ⦂⦂
Imagine that each plate touches another two plates at their edges and no plate overlaps. If it helps, imagine ꕤ except with each petal-shape being a circle.
Now put four square plates in the same configuration: ⊞
Again, each plate touches another two plates and no plate overlaps.

Picture the configuration of both plate shapes in your mind's eye: see the diamond-shaped space between the four circular plates? That's wasted, unusable space as you can't store anything else in that space, really. The square plates, however, have usable space there. See what I mean?

[Anonymous No.5707659]

>>5707438
nice one

[Anonymous No.5707664]

>>5707624

sure, but this whole discussion depends on how you define 'use of space'

[Anonymous No.5707673]

>>5707664
Well, if you define it correctly like >>5707624 and >>5707467 do, then there's no discussion necessary, Anon.

Nope. Strong and light. Anything that could break these would break another plate

[Anonymous No.5708421]

>>5707879
Bullshit. iv owned this type of plate all my life and whenever one breaks you get to play did i get every piece and am i going to step on one tomorrow game.

that being said they are the best plates.

This only matters if your square plates fit your cabinets exactly. Otherwise you're wasting space and should burn your house down.

[Anonymous No.5708586]

Left is for Fuddy Duddies.
Right is for Hip Cats.

[Anonymous No.5708597]

>>5707879

Yeah, but one breaks into 3 pieces the other breaks into 3000 pieces, which is easier to clean up? Also, the stress builds up over time with legit corelle - it might not break the first time you bump it into something, but it _remembers_.

You imply that everyone lives alone and cooks only enough for one meal at a time.

[Anonymous No.5708675]

my big plates are round. my small plates are square. I usually use the smaller plates though since I live alone and don't eat that much at mealtimes.

[Anonymous No.5709863]

I like round plates. I don't have to worry about whether I should align the plate corners in any particular direction when eating, or whether I should pick up/hold the plate by the side or by a corner.
