Holy shit! #6 unlocked some memories that have been hidden away deep in my subconscious for at least 20 years.
Seven!
I had “Country Cornflower”.
I also saw a bunch of #4 somewhere. It was either at one set of grandparents’, or one of my friends’ houses.
Mom actually still has the pictured kind, still being used to this day. I was there just last week and there was some of it still drying in the dishwasher. I stole a few plates and bowls when I left, and it’s still the only glassware I’ve ever really used more than a couple times. I’m not particularly find of it, but I have these pieces and I don’t give a fuck what it looks like if it works.
At least it doesn’t have Jesus on it or something. I would draw the line at that.
7, and my “little” brother still has it 40 years later because he doesn’t want to spend money on dishes
Lucky number 7.
just a PSA for those of you unaware; these plates up until 2004 contained lead paint. If you’re using these plates, uh. dont. Use them as decorations or get rid of them immediately.
Source (check the FAQ for the question about lead)
Came here to say this. I only recently found out and got rid of all my #7’s immediately. I don’t think I’ll accept hand-me-down plates anymore after that.
Do you have a different or specific source? I found an daqnabout lead but it only said that they are in compliance and always have been. I recognize the weasel word but only because you brought it up
There are other sources but the reason I linked corelle directly is because they admit that pre-2000s plates have trace lead amounts. They use weasel wording sure, but it says it.
Are Corelle® products lead-free?
… Corelle was first introduced by Corning over 50 years ago and in 2000 started to be manufactured by the company known today as Instant Brands.
… Before 2000, and before tighter lead content safety regulations, a small amount of lead was an ingredient in the decorating process of many household products.
There are other sources, but most of them are websites ive never heard of. Figured corelle was the easiest source to link. Ill point you towards this one because its closer to what I stated and remembered happening I almost wonder if corell has changed their FAQ because i remember it being more specific at one point in time.
Thanks. I actually hadn’t found that faq. There’s another one about multiple toxic metals, but might not be for Corelle
6 and 7
None of the above.

Absolutely indestructible. Drop it on the tiles, cracks the tiles.
You can have it in any colour, as long as it’s Brown.
Drop it on your foot, it breaks your foot, but the food remains intact!
Throw it in a volcano, the volcano erupts, but the plate is fine and the food is slightly warmer
Yup.
