| | | platos y cualquier otro tipo de vajilla de plástico | Explanation:
La diferencia, según la entiendo, es que platos es, justamente, esa cosa plana donde se sirve la comida, mientras que dishes se refiere a toda la vajilla (tazas, cazuelas, platitos, etc.). Espero te ayude con mi idea. Saludos!
