CJK Unified Ideograph-7CE3

糣 (sǎn) is an old Chinese character for rice stirred into soup, later stretched to grains and sprinkling — a documented variant of 糝 (simplified 糁). Keep it for the exact old graph; write 糝 or 糁.

What 糣 means

Rice stirred into thick soup; later grains and scattered bits.

The Shuowen Jiezi, a Chinese dictionary compiled around 100 CE, files it under the entry for 糂 as that entry's 籀文 form — zhòuwén, an old seal-script style — beside 糝, the 'ancient script' form.

A dictionary-form glyph — fine in old texts, odd in modern writing.

In normal writing, reach for 糝 or 糁 — 糣 is for citations.

Why does 糣 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
