how many slices in a loaf of bread

A typical commercial loaf of bread usually contains between 16 and 24 slices. This range varies based on the size and type of loaf, with some long thin loaves having up to 30 slices and thicker loaf types like Texas toast having fewer slices. Most standard sandwich loaves give you about 8 to 12 sandwiches per loaf. The slice count can also depend on whether the end pieces (heels) are counted or not.
