The inner edge/brink of the plate swirls slightly inwards, starting at the plate's outer edge and terminating at the inner bottom.

Thanks for including the red line - I originally saw a regular bowl and was thinking that's just how bowls work so they don't spill out all the time

Spiral is kind of weird though. Maybe if you're mixing something by swirling the bowl it might help keep liquid in. But I'm leaning towards it just being a kooky design

Thank you for teaching me at least three things:

  1. Your reply on the actual matter at hand
  2. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/kooky
  3. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kooky

That implies you also don't know about The Addams Family? https://youtu.be/cfawtDT945o?is=G4CdAVE4ASn4hf3_

All of the world's eggs are on my face right now. HOW have I not seen this. I thank you for the lecture!

[-] SparkyBauer44@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Well stop! The eggs just returned to a reasonable price!

[-] akunohana@piefed.blahaj.zone 5 points 2 weeks ago

Who would've thought that little insignificant me watching The Adams Family would keep egg prices in check. 🙂‍↕️

The extremely rare instance of an ACTUALLY USEFUL red line!

Privileged to have observed this in the wild

I say it is for anaesthetics, that means, the spiral is hypnotising you to fall asleep, and then somebody else gets all your food.

[-] akunohana@piefed.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 weeks ago

So that's where it all went. And that's why I'm still hungry...

[-] one_old_coder@piefed.social 12 points 2 weeks ago

Never seen that. I vote for a e s t h e t i c s.

[-] lemmysmash@piefed.social 9 points 2 weeks ago

Doesn't matter, lick it.

Never mind! It's obviously an homage to the Uzumaki Clan.

Bro you even linked it, at least type it correctly.

[-] akunohana@piefed.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 weeks ago

I laughed so hard at this. Well, there goes my Master's degree in Japanese out the window. 😭

[-] quediuspayu@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 2 weeks ago

I bet it is purely aesthetic, I've seen all kinds of designs on this kind of plates.

[-] Smoogs@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

gross.

so i guess cleaning the bowl before posting it was just a step too far for you

[-] lagg_mine@lemmy.world 20 points 2 weeks ago

Looks like they are in a restaurant and dont actually own this plate

[-] WhyJiffie@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 weeks ago

filthy akunohana, cannot even wash that dirty plate before posting! so gross I cannot look!!

are you using levitating plates where the food doesnt ever touch it or what, that you don't see used plates on the daily? get your priorities together.

[-] Smoogs@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

which is it youre yelling at me about? suggesting cleaning after food was finished on the plate or youre suggesting floating food?

pick an argument and stick to it.

low effort troll. go jump up ur ass.

[-] WhyJiffie@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 weeks ago

oh, no, I cannot remember which one I could have thought of! probably the floating food, yeah! must have been it! how dare you float your food!

and sure, the troll is totally me. not the user with the most pathetic complaint under the post.

while we are at it, please be so kind and give me a recipe for cinnamon rolls, I'm so hungry.

Spiral King approves.

[-] TheRiskiestBiscuit@reddthat.com 1 points 2 weeks ago

I just asked an AI yesterday for its thoughts on spiralism and it was surprisingly candid in stating - and I’m paraphrasing, of course - “This is the type of bullshit we produce when you interact with us too long and our sycophantic basic instructions start a recursive feedback loop.”

[-] blackbrook@mander.xyz 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Heh! It makes sense that as people talk about the phenomenon (and write articles like the one I linked) LLMs will ingest that and start parroting those thoughts back to us.

[-] abbadon420@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 weeks ago

I'd put my money on easthetics

[-] fizzle@quokk.au 4 points 2 weeks ago

Aren't there pans with this design that let you tip out excess oil or whatever using the swirl?

I doubt that's what's going on here though. Just aesthetic IMO.

[-] tired_n_bored@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Some food can be put there (eg some cream or a line of olive oil) just for aesthetic purposes

[-] ButteryMonkey@piefed.social 2 points 2 weeks ago

You ever see those coin tornado things?

This is like that but for grapes on a small scale ;)
