The U.S. price for a loaf of bread in 1975 was as low as $0.14 (14 cents). However, this was not a typical market price. According to the USDA records, the average retail price was twice that much, 27 cents, for a 1 pound loaf. In the Northeast, for example, the price for a loaf of Sunbeam White Bread (regular 16 oz. loaf) was 29 cents. Interestingly there wasn't any "wheat" bread on the shelves of many stores in the area back then. (Major Bread Bakers, however, did market Wheat bread.)
