The oddness of the sentence is not syntactic or grammatical, but semantic:

Happiness is something abstract so you would not say you ate a bowl of happiness, which is why the sentence is grammatically correct but it is semantically odd.

It is also odd to say a plate of juice because you would normally use a glass of juice not a plate.

<h3>What are semantics?</h3>

Semantics is the study of meaning. If you study semantics, you analyze the meaning of words and the relation between words.

In this case, you have to explain why the sentence given is semantically odd, which relates to the use of the words in a specific context where you would not normally use them.
