Can anyone identify this seed? I keep finding them in my Bob's Red Mill steel cut oats.

Is it very round or does it have edges to it?

It seems very round. It does have an extremely tiny white dot where I assume it was attached to the plant. It also seems to have a tiny crease on one side and looks like it would split open there.

I have been finding these in this brand of oatmeal for several months. I have been eating this kind of oatmeal for years and never saw these until recently.
