I actually thought I was a little weird for doing so, but I'm glad to see I'm not alone :) I also use a little fork and spoon for everything. I hate the big ones. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-size-dinner-plate-do-you-use#post-364660 Sun, 28 Oct 2012 05:48:50 +0000 heffalump 364660@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We do. But we usually end up getting seconds.... so it would make sense to just use the big plate. I guess it makes us feel better to feel like we're not eating as much on a little plate. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-size-dinner-plate-do-you-use#post-364523 Sat, 27 Oct 2012 22:55:21 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 364523@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ya all the time! Easier to wash (no dishwasher) and plenty big enough for most things. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-size-dinner-plate-do-you-use#post-364518 Sat, 27 Oct 2012 22:52:25 +0000 shopaholic 364518@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! Same reasons. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-size-dinner-plate-do-you-use#post-364512 Sat, 27 Oct 2012 22:50:08 +0000 pinkcupcake 364512@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup, we do too, for the same reasons as @mrs. wagon: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-size-dinner-plate-do-you-use#post-364443 Sat, 27 Oct 2012 21:47:03 +0000 mrs. wagon 364443@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We do too! Partly for portion control reasons, partly because it saves space in the sink and dishwasher :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-size-dinner-plate-do-you-use#post-364418 Sat, 27 Oct 2012 21:04:37 +0000 chopsuey 364418@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use smaller plates too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-size-dinner-plate-do-you-use#post-364380 Sat, 27 Oct 2012 20:23:56 +0000 softcream 364380@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we have the normal 10-inch dinner plates, but rarely use those. i tend to almost always reach for the smaller 8-inch salad plates, because they help keep my portions smaller. for both lunch and dinner. plus, they're easier to handle when washing dishes.</p> <p>do you use salad plates are your standard meal plates too? </p>
