Update: it took time. And then a quick pry with a knife. Saved the dishes. Ravioli saved too but for raccoons outside probably lol. What I learned about physics....sheesh.

Heat it to make the air expand

[–] Trihilis@ani.social 9 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

I have no idea what I'm looking at. Wth is a ravioli bowl? A bowl made specifically for ravioli?

[–] HoneyMustardGas@lemmy.world 6 points 13 hours ago

Bowl of ravioli, my bad

[–] WhyFlip@lemmy.world 19 points 1 day ago

That really sucks.

[–] LimpRimble@lemmy.ca 16 points 23 hours ago

an hour of prying

After that much work you should leave is as-is on your coffee table as an art/conversation piece.

[–] MoreFPSmorebetter@lemmy.zip 46 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Someone slept through physics class a few times.

Heat and/or cold would be your friend in this situation.

Personally I would just toss the whole thing in the freezer for the night, but there is a small chance that results in a broken plate in the morning.

If you have an air compressor a blast of air right against the lip of the bowl would probably also pop it off.

Other than that just run hot water over the bowl (or submerge it) and then get the plate cold while being careful to not have the hot water touch the cold plate or visa versa.

Best of luck soldier.

[–] HoneyMustardGas@lemmy.world 9 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

The plastic was fused to the glass some how. I pryed it off and salvaged the plate. Also, I already tried all of that.

[–] MoreFPSmorebetter@lemmy.zip 19 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Oh you melted the plate to the bowl lol. That's kinda impressive. It does make me wonder if your bowl was not dishwasher safe to begin with. Things shouldn't be melting/fusing in the dishwasher.

[–] HoneyMustardGas@lemmy.world 5 points 13 hours ago

*microwave and they are "reheat only" technically

[–] seejur@lemmy.world 16 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Wouldnt be the opposite? What's keeping the plates together is vacuum. What it needs is to heat the gas inside to make it expand and reduce the vacuum

[–] MoreFPSmorebetter@lemmy.zip 16 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Let me walk you through my 3 different answers.

  1. Shrinking the bowl and the plate at the same time might just pop the seal when left in the freezer all night. It would only take a couple Crystal forming in the right spot to break that seal.

  2. Blasting air into the seal could potentially resolve the pressure difference holding the bowl to the plate or force enough air into the bowl that it actually builds positive pressure inside and that pops the bowl off as well.

  3. Heating the bowl would get it to expand slightly and cooling the plate would make it shrink slightly so doing them at the same time could cause the perfect seal they have formed to shift enough that it allows the pressure to equalize/release.

It's less about heating the gas inside the bowl to reverse the vacuum and it's more about breaking the seal that has formed in the first place.

[–] GreyEyedGhost@lemmy.ca 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

But heating the gas inside would also work because, no matter how perfect the seal is, it won't matter if there is no vacuum to hold the two pieces together.

[–] SirEDCaLot@lemmy.today 9 points 22 hours ago

This is the answer. Leave a hair dryer blowing at the thing for 5 or 10 minutes. It will heat the bowl, and also heat the air inside, which will expand.

[–] seejur@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Amazing. Thanks!

Hot ass water

Edit: Clarification: Poor hot ass water on it or dunk it in hot ass water

Edit 2, electric boogaloo: This is dependent on the material, according to my mother

[–] admin@sh.itjust.works 38 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Can I use regulat hot water if I don't have access to the ass water?

[–] LikeTearsInTheRain@lemmynsfw.com 14 points 1 day ago (2 children)

No, it must be from the ass.

Ass water can easily made yourself. No need to get expensive store bought ass water

[–] admin@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 hours ago

Yeah but KFC or Jack in the box isn't as cheap as it used to be, the only cheap way to make it requires Taco bell now.

Instructions unclear, bowl still stuck to plate, but is now covered in sexy posterior dihydrogen monoxide.

By "ravioli bowl," do you mean it currently has ravioli in it? If so, put it in the microwave for increments of like 30 seconds.

[–] hperrin@lemmy.ca 103 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Hot air cooled, contracted, and created partial vacuum is my guess. Make it hot again and it will unstick, I bet.

No one is going to mention that OP has a bowl specifically for ravioli?

[–] apex32@lemmy.world 41 points 1 day ago (7 children)

Well how do you cook ravioli? In your fettuccine bowl?

I think it’s just a bowl currently full of ravioli

UPDATE PLEASE. I must know the fate of the dishes.

[–] NostraDavid@programming.dev 4 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago) (2 children)

OP responded that he microwaved bowl and plate, and that some plastic melted and fused them both.

@Theo@lemmy.world - can we get an after picture?

edit: context: https://programming.dev/post/28471691/16271644

[–] theo@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

I don't think I'm your guy haha. I do not have a ravioli bowl unfortunately.

[–] magnetosphere@fedia.io 1 points 9 hours ago

Thank you! I was WAY too invested in this!

congrats you now have an elevated plate

[–] baggachipz@sh.itjust.works 31 points 1 day ago

The mildlyinfuriating part is that OP hasn’t posted a resolution.

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 54 points 1 day ago

Put the whole thing in a pot of water and start bringing it to a slow simmer. This will warm the air inside, expanding it and breaking the suction. I got my stuck blender jar open this way, taking it out as soon as the first tiny bubble escaped and quickly unscrewing it before it could cool.

[–] FreeBeard@slrpnk.net 24 points 1 day ago (16 children)

The power of suction is physically limited. That means it either isn't suction or op is crazy weak. My guess is that the plastic melted (probably not from boiling Temp) or op is strongly exaggerating.

[–] arin@lemmy.world 25 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Air pressure is insanely high compared to a vacuum
