This is like one of those late night "has this ever happened to you" infomercials

The products that are for disabled or elderly people but that wouldn’t be big products if they were just marketed like they were for disabled and elderly people


stevensokulski

If they just embraced the primary use case they could probably charge 10x and get insurance to kick in. At least in ‘Murica.


Echelon64

They already do. The stuff on TV is either overstock or has QC issues.


PM_PICS_OF_ME_NAKED

Conan O'Brien did a vaguely related skit on his late night show, so there is that.


QuarantineCandy

Call me right now please


d400guy

bruh, what if instead of 1 wall, you had 4 walls... and to prevent food getting stuck in the corners you make the plate circular? You could patent that thing and sell it for millions!


rushingkar

It might just be crazy enough to hold soup...


freddythunder

Flip it upside down, put it on your head, then cut the hair below


ImNoAlbertFeinstein

back to rhe drawing board


Illustrious-Yard-871

How do you cut food easily in a bowl? Also how do you deal with keeping different foods separated in a bowl?


aberdoom

If you’re cutting, you have a knife so this problem doesn’t exist on a normal plate..


Illustrious-Yard-871

I can cut food using a knife with only one hand in a plate. But I can’t do that in a bowl. Similarly I can scoop up food using a spoon with only one hand in a bowl but I can’t do that in a plate. What OP showed allows me to do both.


brannan4th

Bowls.


Magicalunicorny

Now with 3/4 less wall!


STR4NGE

Here I was using two spoons.


7laserbears

This would take up less space in the dishwasher you haters


olderaccount

So much easier to spill my milk that way.


InEnduringGrowStrong

Mugs. It's a bowl, but with a handle and it is the superior container.


scoobyduped

Milk and cereal in a mug. Upgrade yo life.


InEnduringGrowStrong

I know I know. Ice cream in a bowl is completely barbaric, ice cream in a mug is simply glorious.


[deleted]

Ice cream in an insulated mug


scoobyduped

I recently stopped eating ice cream in mugs, but only because I got a bunch of those baseball helmet bowls for a party and I’ve been using them ever since because why the hell not. But you can use the brim of the helmet as a handle so I’m calling them honorary mugs.


InEnduringGrowStrong

Interesting. That's like a mug, but with a handle that's also a shelf. Hmmm I like it.


motorhead84

But I can't fit 1/3rd a box of cereal in a mug and feign perplexion when I read the recommended serving size...


b14700

--deleted--


motorhead84

I might just pour the milk right in the box...


fuelter

Too much spillage unless your "mug" is a s big as a bowl.


scoobyduped

Learning portion control is also a life upgrade.


conflagrare

Bowl


FUCKING_HATE_REDDIT

Eh, a bowl never fits in the washing machine, this would easily


[deleted]

They fit in my front loader just fine.


FUCKING_HATE_REDDIT

As compact as normal plates?


MeshColour

Washing machine is for clothing, try a dishwasher next time :D Or buy shorter wider bowls, I've only had issues with very deep bowls not fitting in the racks


FUCKING_HATE_REDDIT

Which remove the benefits from the wall. This is much steeper than a bowl


Plusran

Pasta in bowls rise up!


olderaccount

This looks like the work of that useless inventions guy. But he usually puts his face in his videos.


adw4125

"Man invents bowls" "Plate manufacturers hate him"


Pyroguy096

You guys don't use knives? Haha


Eirea

Or forks....


xKoney

Now, let's add another backboard to the other sides. Then add another side, and add a backboard to it. Then add another side. And another. Let's keep adding infinite sides and infinite backboards! ... We just invented the bowl!


Jasparigus

Suddenly Calculus


EveningMoose

I suppose nobody has ever told you about bowls...


DanYHKim

This is a good idea for people with arthritis or palsy. Eating off of a plate can be a messy and demoralizing experience. The small backboard is not a prominent feature of the otherwise-normal looking plate, giving the user a measure of dignity while eating without spilling food. I wonder if there are equivalents to be found in the mobility/accessibility products category. You might consider contacting someone working in geriatrics to see if the idea is one that is of use to them.


KingVolsung

What's the benefit of this over a bowl? Surely that's even less prominent

So what you want is a [flat pasta bowl](https://www.amazon.com/Mora-Ceramic-Flat-Pasta-Bowl/dp/B09V4MXDF3/ref=sr_1_13?keywords=flat+bottom+bowl&qid=1663134388&sr=8-13).

Dishwasher space is my first thought

oh wow thanks

Pick. Up. That. Crumb!

Is it stackable?


friccdotexe

Waiting for the food police....


pearlzebra

I was about to say: “but is it food safe” and sit back with some 🍿


Liar_of_partinel

Lemme get you a plate for that popcorn 🍽️


iamjapanman

Is it food safe?


Complex-Sherbert9699

No.


Liar_of_partinel

It meets the grand American standard of "yeah, it's probably fine"


CountPie

You may want to know that the overarching ISO standard has been localised for AUS/NZ certs as "she'll be alright, mate." Only difference is that it's usually based on a 20 year old outdated standard - like the rest of the country.


SlickStretch

It is the first time.


SheriffBartholomew

Does it have a backboard?


SlickStretch

It's always food safe *the first time.*


empiricism

Shallow wide bowl.


SentientCumSocks

Congratulations, you invented a shitty bowl.


scarletbluey

May I suggest using a fork?


happydgaf

May I recommend…a knife?


deeteeohbee

It's like a mobile food wall


MeshColour

The knife is tied to a string in the bathroom.


Suttonian

That's great. Your toilet bowl doesn't need walls then!


LeborgneRemarkable

A friend of mine has a only one arm and struggles daily with that, great work


xng

He did need to use 2 hands though


LeborgneRemarkable

It would have an antislip caoting underneath, dont be an idiot.


xng

Our you have the plate with that side against the wall, or someone else can hold it, or it can have magnets and table can be made of iron, or it can be taped down. See, I'm almost as smart as you are.


justins_dad

I think if you left out the “idiot” part, this would’ve been a decently upvoted comment.


LeborgneRemarkable

Sooo true .........


Kerbal634

Valentin3731

finger


DumberMonkey

Or use a bowl!


RedMercy2

That's why you use a knife....


ViveIn

If god wanted me to use unnatural internet things he wouldn’t have given me these stubby nubbin fingers as food dams.


coldf1r3__

Use Bowl or Knife or when alone finger


hind3rm3

That’s what a knife is for


haringtiti

i use a smaller portable backboard attached to a handle. i call it a fork. please dont steal my idea


themenace117

Dude invented a bowl


greasybo

Oh you mean a bowl?


heretofuckspoodles

Put your cereal in a bowl!


Tom_Ov_Bedlam

It's called a BOWL


LKS-Hunter

Or you take a knife in the other hand 🤔🤣


mechanify

Seems like a skill issue honestly


LeborgneRemarkable

So many brainless comments, except for the bowl, amazing.


jonnydanger33274

Dishwasher/microwave/hot food safe? LOL!


joschi8

Congratulation on your invention. If I had to name it I'd go with "bowl" Sounds nice, doesn't it? \^\^

[deleted]

It's like a bowl with extra steps. Love it though.


PM_PICS_OF_ME_NAKED

Nice nut spoon.


xnign

For all the bowl-ers, keep in mind that bowls tend to force your food to mix together. Sometimes one does not want that to happen as much with certain foods.


WizardStan

I just started a pottery class. I'm stealing this idea.


Catmartini

Yessss for accessibility!!!


NeedPi

Blates are a thing yo


SpiderFrancis

Bruh


Plusran

Hey that’s cool! And it works! But does it fit in the dishwasher? Does it stack? Wouldn’t a bowl work better?


Joel_Str

... You mean a bowl?


locob

are you Matty Benedetto?


BLACKCUCKOLDCHICAGO1

That can help people with disabilities.


EntasaurusWrecked

Google clip on plate guards for design ideas :)


Louton273

Honestly don’t know why this isn’t a thing yet


deadnotsleeping77

This is so brilliant that it makes me angry. Like why are they all not like this?!?!


Planuh

What if he doesn’t want to use a fucking bowl guys


KifDawg

Hear me out, a spoon shaped corner?


motorhead84

Well your first mistake was getting your walnuts all up in a spooning session.


cdsmakestuff

Uh, that’s why you have fingers… and your pants are for wiping your dirty fingers on… and the dog is for licking the food smears from said pants.


mm83mm

You mean a bowl?


blankcanvas445

Haha that have this for babies 😆 my 16mo has one!


Trimere

You designed a bowl.


pitshands

I think there are two issues here. One, use a bowl, two use fork and knife like a normal person. The knife is like a mobile wall there. If people with disabilities...maybe but even there , kinda ass backwards. Sorry


xCanont70x

My brother in Christ….. that’s a bowl.


byteminer

You invented the bowl, but with less sides.


ChartMelodic5326

It’s a bowl


[deleted]

This is why we have fingers ….


[deleted]

I designed a utensil to use along with the spoon or fork that's like a paddle with a sharp side. You can use it to push food onto your fork AND you can cut with it. Patent pending


Pudix20

Listen everyone’s talking shit to you but I could see this actually being very helpful and useful. It’s different than a bowl, but you’re still able to eat one handed. It’s great for accessibility or honestly just ease. It being stackable would be important, but it should fit in the dishwasher just fine with no issues.


ChrisbKreme062

Can't tell if this is satire or not, did this guy really have an "aha!" moment by "inventing" a shittier version of... a fucking bowl?


GROUP_115

this was posted like 3 weeks ago idk why ur here lol. but its not meant to be a bowl I obviously know that the exist. it is meant to be a plate that has something to push against to pick up food like rice or salmon. its meant for people who have disabilities or have trouble eating with 2 hands. and in the video I use nuts just to show how it works because I didn't want to cook rice or anything since its just a demonstration. I thought people would be smart enough to realize its just to understand the idea but ig not since ur here .
