Thinnerware (patent pending) is a line of attractive dishes that help you keep track of how much you eat.
Ever wonder how much you're eating? Ever try keeping track using measuring cups and food scales? If you have, you know what a pain it is. Not only do you have to premeasure or weigh everything before you eat, but you also have to wash a lot of extra dishes. Who has time for that?
That's where Thinnerware comes in. Each of our dishes is marked to help you know how much you're consuming, eliminating the need to premeasure. The best part is, the markings are hidden in the design, so Thinnerware dishes look like regular, everyday dinnerware.
Let's take this bowl for example. Each of
these green and white stripes marks a
As you can see these lines are not labeled
on the inside. They look like part of the bowl's
The cups also have stripes on the inside. These measure 1/4, 1/2, and 1 cup.
And just in case you forget, there is a "key" on the bottoms of both the cups and the bowls to help you keep track of the measurements.
The designs on Thinnerware plates also double as measuring tools. This plate has three main flower
groupings.
The largest one equals about 1/2
cup of food. So if you were to
spoon rice onto that flower design,
when the rice reached the
edges you'd have approximately
1/2 cup of rice.
The smaller, single flower
equals about 1/4 cup of food.
The two flowers that make a
somewhat rectangular shape is
approximately one serving size
of meat. Since a serving of meat
is about the size of a deck of cards,
the outline of these flowers is
roughly the same as a deck of cards.
Remember, these are just approximations. If you pile your food six inches high, you'll end up with a bigger portion. We recommend measuring your food with a measuring cup the first time you use your plate. Measure 1/2 cup of food and empty it onto the 1/2 cup flower, etc. That way you can see about how high the food goes for each measurement.
