my toddler will currently only eat round foods

Blueberries, peas, cereal, cucumber slices if I call them coins, mini meatballs, bagel bites. Anything not approximately circular gets rejected like I'm serving Victorian medicine. He's 2.5 and otherwise healthy. Just deeply committed to the geometry of snacks.

Mine had a beige era. Circles are honestly more interesting nutritionally.
