do they make divided plates

[ChrizJen]

Here's a really nice looking plate...It's technically a serving dish, but I would imagine it would do just fine as a dining plate.

And OP, while I can't relate to your food issues, I can respect them.

You need to check ebay - there are several choices there.

These are under $30 total for 12 (10 if you only count perfect condition)

I have my moms handme down casseroles that are just as ugly as some of these patterns!

Are you talking about the Blue Flower Corning Ware?

I LOVE those pieces! I have only two pieces left from my mom's collection--a 1 quart and a 1 1/2 quart casserole with a Pyrex lid that fits both. I'm not one for garage sales, but if I pass by one, I'm alway looking for more.

I have a horrible time at buffets. I have to go back 4-5 times to get all that I want to get, as I can only get a small amount of a few things at any given time to ensure that it doesn't touch.

I try, but it is so hard to overcome.

There's nothing as yummy as taking a spoonful of mashed potatoes and smooshing them into corn then taking a bite.

Ew, yuck.

This thread has made me laugh!

I had no idea that adults needed divided plates. Not that I'm calling anyone a freak! More power to ya!

I'm with the mashed potatoes and corn mixology. Mmmmmm.

DOn't get me wrong they are the BEST dishes ever! I got the french country white when I got married (I think that was what itwas called) but I don't like that they didn't come with handles like the old ones mom had.

If only we could spraypaint the awful design

Glad we could make you laugh~

nope - I haven't tried the mashed potatoes with corn - but I'd probably like it though.

We make a special meal my kids love that's mashed potatoes that I put grnd meat in it & peas & cheese. SOmetimes I leave out the peas & add baconbits. The kids LOVE it & its the best way to get them to eat a big ole serving of peas since it's all mixed in the potatoes.

I love using divided plates - although most of mine also have covers and are suitable for popping in the microwave.. That's how I make my own tv dinners and freeze them when I do "batch" cooking..

I don't really have a problem with my foods "touching", but let's say I'm eating cubed steak - with mashed potatoes, peas, and applesauce.. I practically drown the cubed steak with Worcestershire sauce and I really don't care to have it "run" into the other foods.. Applesauce doesn't taste all that great with Worcestershire sauce mixed into it.. LOL..

"Nice" and "divided" plates aren't 2 words I'd ever think of together.

And how can you not like your food to touch? There's nothing as yummy as taking a spoonful of mashed potatoes and smooshing them into corn then taking a bite. Its the only way to eat them together.

Salad with Italian dressing touching the edges of your spaghetti. I like my salad on the same plate.

Pfaltzgraff tea rose. Hmm... I think I might need these too. I also hate when my food touches!

[Silent1CB]

that are not throwaway or melamine? I LOVE my plastic divided plates - but they sure are ugly & cheap looking (bright green plastic) I'd love to have niceish dishes that were divided like them.

I like not having my food touch....

My mother used to collect antique glassware. There was a glass called Carnival Glass. She collected the orange color. She had a large set & it was her good dishes that we used for holidays. They had divided plates.

She used to pick up pieces at fleamarkets & in small cheap antique shops. Eventually, she collected an entire set.

Google Carnival Glass or Depression Glass.

Depression Glass was plainer, one color, and more see-through. It also came in many colors & patterns.

Oooooo! That one is REALLY pretty!!

I can't stand corn mixed with my mashed potatoes. Peas are much better.

Please be aware that many vintage ceramic plates contain lead. You might want to research any you purchase before using them daily.

I have seen the divided Corelle ones at our local outlet and Walmart.

The Tea Rose plate is plastic, I think.

I'm sitting here eating right now - using a microwaveable divided plate.. LOL..

Leftover baked macaroni and cheese, french-style green beans, and applesauce.. Yum!!
