Answer:
Plates are round so your food wont fall sour the edge
Many years ago, when people didn't hold access to plates, they used pieces of bread as plates - so all the meaty juice would soak into it (waste not want not etc). Bread is ususally roundish in shape. Then after a while, they used pieces of wood (think roughly the shape of a branch) called trenchers. The more well-off used metal plates, then china. That's why plates are round.
So you can play frisbee after dinner, of course!
Because those cursed trapezoidal plates just weren't working out.
Until the modern mould was made the plates or any other vessel made near clay was made beside the use of a pottery turntable or a potters wheel. Now this too be not an electric operated one but any turned with the mitt or operated beside the foot pedal.
As you can imagine near a turn table the only shape that could be achieve was round – hence the ingenious plates were round.
