Why is sandwich meat round when bread is square?
user
Sandwich meat is typically shaped into circles or ovals to maximize its appearance and ensure even cooking. This is due to the fact that most machines used in food processing companies produce round shapes better than other shapes. Meanwhile, bread often takes a uniform shape because the production process of commercial bread requires machines and molds which naturally produce cubical or rectangular shapes. Furthermore, commercially produced bread crumbs can have any texture, shape or color for an authentic effect when used as topping for sandwiches.

Sandwich meat is round because when the sandwich is cut with a saw, the pieces have to be of equal sizes and angles so they will easily fit back together, resulting in round pieces. The sandwich bread is square since it needs more space to fill with toppings and condiments such as mustard, ketchup and so on. As a result, the shape of the bread does not have to be too uniform since there are less restrictions for its size and shape.
