Almost all pedals are like this. The fancy track pedals are even worse because they have an even higher ridge designed to sit deep in the cleat, like the mks rx-1.

There are 2 pedals that can take clips that aren't like this. The mks gr -9, and the White industries urban platform pedal. I have the white industries pedal on the way in the mail, so can't comment on it. The gr9's are pretty narrow, I wear size 12 also, so passed on them.

I am sure there are some oddball older pedals, or very rare unknown pedals that take clips and have a nice platform. But as for available brand new from a store, those are the only 2 I know of.
