(via Listverse) We probably do not pay attention to the shapes of lots of things we see around us every day. This is even though we would probably realize something was amiss if we saw them in a different shape. Imagine if you saw a circular television or a square coin. The shapes of most everyday items are not random as you might think. Sugar is always in cubes, televisions are rectangular, and doughnuts are round for a reason. Most of the time, the shape is selected for practical reasons. Sometimes, they also have one or two things to do with the history of the product.
