This is a weird question but does anybody prefer plates or bowls over the other? I have these bowls that aren't too deep and doesn't have as large circumfrance as my plates and you'll usually find me eating from those. I think it's eating less than stacking a plate up with food.. anybody?

    Depends what I'm eating. If I don't want my food touching, a plate. If I do, then a bowl.

    I eat from bowls a lot just because stuff is trapped so it's easier to wrestle it onto the silverware using the side of the bowl. Also you're less prone to spilling stuff (which is good since I'm super clumsy.

    My father-in-law has a rule as to which is the proper vessel. Fork = plate, spoon = bowl.

    Bowls for soup and cereal, plates for steak or any kind of meat

    Depends what I am eating but I often use my small bread plates as main dish plates because well an overloaded plate feels more filling for some reason.

    I use both, but tend to grab a bowl more often.

    Hmm depends. We have what are called "pasta bowls" but we call them plate bowls. They're wide, shallow bowls and we use them a lot. They're good for containing rice and pasta :)

    I typically use a serving plate.... Or a salad bowl... I rarely use an actual dinner plate or cereal/pasta bowl...
