Strictly speaking, old fashioned tater tots aren't round. They're sort
of tubular. For round tater tots you should be looking at Ore Ida
Crispy Crowns.

LOL! Meatballs do tend to flatten out a bit. Brussels sprouts aren't
round, either. But they sure are tasty!

One of the big commercial bakeries produced cylindrical bread, before tert was born.

The rationale was that lunch meats were generally round (bologna, salami, etc.) so why sell bread that would extend past the meat?

Round bread? Didn't some of the early bread machines make round loaves? And there are recipes for bread
baked in round cans, like the old 2 and 3 pound coffee cans, which they probably don't make anymore.
But I think there are commercial sizes of canned fruit and vegetables that come in large round cans.

My Webuilt ABM bakes round loaves... and I appreciate round slices for
sandwiches, because coldcuts are round, not typically square, and so
fit much better... kind of like how rolls are round and no one
complains that they should be square. White Tower burgers are square
if you want to call those things burgers.

You can buy rounds of bread (boules) at most grocery store bakeries. Of
course they won't be can-shaped. But now we've just wandered off
talking about round bread...

You can get buns or those sandwich thins.

Brown bread is round too.

That's something I want to make soon - I have cans saved over at DD's
so hubby can't throw them away or use them for something else. Now
that the weather is turning, I'll make brown bread and a pot of
"Boston" baked beans (thinking the slow cooker will be a great
replacement for the bean pot with separate burner that I used to
have).

I made it as a kid, mainly to torment my dad. He has always referred to
wheat or whole wheat bread as brown bread, as opposed to white bread. At
home we knew what he meant but it meant confusion in restaurants to most
servers. Seems that most (especially the younger ones) have not even heard
of brown bread.

I saved my cans, made it and presented it to him. Heh. Have also bought
the canned stuff at the grocery store to give to him. Nobody really liked
it enough for me to make it again but it was okay.

Most of the world's bread is round or oval.
