The family mostly eats with disposable plates and utensils throughout the movie. There is one explanation explicitly provided in dialogue for this (by avoiding dish-washing, Sam's mother, Mitzi, is preserving her hands for piano performance) and another explanation implied by the plot and characterizations (Mitzi, being a highly eccentric person in most aspects of her life, is not very interested in maintaining many of the trappings of what it meant to be a stereotypical 1950s and '60s housewife and mother, including in the kitchen). However, there is a third possible explanation: though like the real-life Spielberg family, the Fabelman family doesn't keep kosher, in scenes where they eat with other relatives who do and they are obliged to eat "kosher-style," disposable plates and utensils would be a much easier way to accomplish that than the permanent alternative; keeping strictly kosher requires two complete, separate sets of everyday china and silverware for meat meals and for dairy meals, with two additional separate sets for Passover. During a November 2022 interview with Terry Gross on the National Public Radio program "Fresh Air," Steven Spielberg joked that "I grew up in an Orthodox Jewish family only when my grandparents were visiting our home. . . . when they went away, we weren't kosher anymore."
