Its a matter of available surface..... The food on the edge of the plate is exposed to more air, the food on the middle of the plate is surrounded by hot food.

There's less of it! The edge of the plate connects with the outer parts of the food and is able to conduct the heat outward more efficiently, therefor cooling the outside part, which is also less dense.

uhhhh... maybe 'cuz the outside edge is exposed to the air first, and depending on the consistency of the food, may well be thinner on the edges as well... which would also lend to the outside edges cooling more quickly. Hope you found this little bit of useless information fulfilling.
