You should get the bowl first, and then the spork. Once you have those, this is the next step in the continuum; and for many, the final. Like the spork and bowl, this plate is featherlight and likely lifetime-lasting. It's 18cm across, which is just over 7 inches; it's on the small side, but you eat too much anyway, and it may help you with that.
It's still big enough for a large slab of fish, burritos, cake. But it is not magnificent for monster salads or cereal. At home, it's a good size and a great material for anything. You'll never break it as you wash it. No fear of dropping it.

For bike trips, it's nearly a no-brainer. It weighs 1/100th of a gram, or feels that way, and it slides into even fully stuffed bags.

At $16, it's kind of pricey, but have you priced non-China made plates lately? This one's not at the top of the list.

Made in Japan, so you know it's the best of its kind. Sixteen dollars for a lifetime of whatever you put on it.
