How many slices are in a standard loaf of bread? A: The standard loaf of sandwich bread contains approximately 20 to 24 slices of bread, including the end pieces (often referred to as the âheelsâ). Loaves of specialty breads, such as Texas toast, sourdough and multi-grain, contain approximately 16 to 18 slices. Loaves of thin-sliced bread contain approximately 26 slices.
Salt is used to enhance flavor, but itâs also needed to ferment the yeast that makes bread dough rise. Some additives designed to extend the breadâs shelf life or improve the doughâs texture may also contain salt. One slice of most types of bread contains 100 to 172 milligrams of sodium. At the lower end, that means youâll get 7 percent of the recommended daily intake from one slice of bread. A slice that has 172 milligrams of sodium supplies almost 12 percent of your daily intake.
