There isn’t one day, in the last 13 years, that I can remember getting up from the dinner table and not having to clean up rice, corn, pasta or veggies. Regardless of how we would show our daughters how to scoop up their food and eat over the plate, they always made a mess. After a lot of frustration and three kids, we finally realized that it’s not their inability to scoop food that’s the problem, it’s actually the plates fault! Think about it… most plates have no edges, so when little hands try to use a utensil to scoop up their food, it’s destined to wind up either on the table or on the floor. Unless they use their hands and that leads to a whole different kind of mess. Thankfully, we’ve learned about the solution to our problem… FoodCubby!
These are a Game Changer.
They have been a game changer for us! FoodCubby is made from food safe, FDA approved and BPA-free silicone. They can be used on any flat surface including plates, glass, countertops and highchairs (heck, you can even use them on the floor if your floor is clean enough to eat off of). Just wash them, stick them on and it’s like magic. Not only does FoodCubby help our little one to scoop her food easier, but it also separates the food!
Like many others, when I was a kid, I did not want my food to touch. I remember my Grandpa telling me that it was all going to end up in the same place anyway, but I was not having it. Those foods needed to stay on their own sides. If there was sauce or gravy involved, separate plates were the only way to go. What a dish nightmare that must have been for my Grandparents, huh?
Where Has FoodCubby Been All These Years?
FoodCubby comes in a variety of colors and is just as easy to clean as it is to use. Too bad we didn’t have them when my oldest was a toddler. It would have saved us from cleaning up years and years of mealtime messes.
After a week of using FoodCubby, I have only had to clean up one mealtime mess and that was because Falynn tried to pull off the FoodCubby with the food still on her plate (just to see what would happen). And folks, she will never do that again because she was picking up pieces of rice for what seemed like an eternity. But aside from that, FoodCubby has been present at every meal and she absolutely loves how easy it is to eat without making a mess. They make her feel like more of a big girl and have given her the confidence she needed to get through the meals without someone telling her that she’s making a mess.
FoodCubby can be purchased on their website or on Amazon. They come with two different sizes in each pack. We absolutely love them and know you will too!

Hello There!
Hi! I’m Heather, Mom of 3, professional snack opener, the only person who knows where everything is in my house and part-time magician (I can turn a bunch of candy into a gift basket and everyone thinks it’s amazing). I share a mix of parenting moments, easy recipes, crafts, and DIY home decor projects.
Around here, we love turning ordinary stuff into extraordinary gifts, from candy box baskets and birthday punch boards to homemade advent calendars and other crafty chaos that somehow always works out.
Welcome to The Super Mom Life — where the projects are fun, the coffee is strong, and the laughter is pretty much required for survival. Don't forget to follow us on social media!
That’s nice! What a great idea for the kids I should recommend this to my sister for her kids. Thank you for sharing!
I am not a mom yet but I still think this post is very useful. At least it seams so. thanks so much for posting, I didn’t even know such tool existed!
This looks like wonderful idea, I need to order for my kids too, they make a mess while eating.
Love this post! We have four kids, and it’s like they all go through that phase where they don’t want to eat anything! I’ll remember this post for the next time we’re there! Thanks for sharing!
Umm these are amazing! HOW did I not know that this existed!? Ordering RIGHT NOW.
What a fun product. That would make eating so much cleaner for kids!
I get that this is for toddlers, but my 17 year old desperately needs this in her life! I have to buy the separated toddler plates for her. This would be so much easier.
