# Tabbed Italian Food Servers The Pizza Dish Minimizes Messy Meals By Meghan Young | Published 2012-02-16 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pizza-dish References: [yankodesign](http://www.yankodesign.com/2012/02/15/neat-pizza-fingers/) Eating pizza can be a messy business, especially because most people eat it with their hands, but the Pizza Dish minimizes the mess significantly. It features a simple tweak on traditional paper plates. Shaped into a triangle, the Pizza Dish easily breaks apart from the bigger circle just like a slice of pizza. In addition to providing an automatic plate, it boasts a helpful tab at the end that allows the eater to pick it up without actually touching the crust or cheese. Designed by Yu Kyung Ha, Won Min Jung and Kwon Young Hee, the Pizza Dish could easily be incorporated into existing pizza boxes. Clever and creative, it will make clean up so much easier. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.2/10 - Popularity: 41% | Activity: 47% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Triangle-shaped Food Servers:** New designs that change the shape of traditional plates to make eating more manageable and less messy. - **Tabbed Dishware:** Innovative designs featuring tabs to improve user experience and hygiene when consuming food. - **Modular Tableware:** Interlocking plates and dishes that improve functionality and versatility. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Food Packaging:** Incorporating new, innovative designs into traditional food packaging for improved user experience. - **Hospitality and Restaurant Industry:** Implementing new, unique, hygienic and practical tableware designs to enhance customer experience. - **Home Goods and Kitchenware:** Creating modular, multifunctional, and innovative dishware for home use, with a focus on improving customer experience. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Transformative Pizza Box Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-moving-box-table.md) - [Revolutionary Pizza Dipping Mechanisms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dip-roller.md) - [Pop-Up Pizza Box Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moving-box-table.md) - [Cup-Integrated Plates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pairingware.md) - [Mess-Avoiding Dipping Dishes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dipidup.md) - [Interactive Mealtime Plates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/platoo-interactive-sensory-meal-plate.md) - [Take-Out Box Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tablebag.md) - [Themed Pizza Dough Presses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pizza-form.md) - [Lockable Pizza Boxes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lockable-pizza-boxes.md)
