Bread is one of America’s most bought food products, but how many slices you get per loaf is not something we generally think about.
It is helpful to know how many slices of bread there are in a loaf when you’re calorie counting if you need to calculate the weight per slice or to work out how many slices you need to feed a crowd.
In this article, I’ve researched and put together a comprehensive list (in charts) of America’s most popular bread brands slice numbers per loaf, along with average slice numbers for a generic loaf.
A 20oz store-bought medium-sliced loaf has around 22 slices per loaf, and a thick sliced loaf will contain 15-17 slices per loaf. A 24oz loaf has an average of 24 medium slices or around 17 thick slices per loaf.
This figure does vary depending on the brand and especially for specialty loaves, so read on to get the exact information you need for your bread type and size.
