Why Bread is elastic or inelastic?

Bread is generally considered to be inelastic in demand because it is a staple food item that people need for their daily nutrition. Even if the price of bread increases, consumers are likely to continue purchasing it because there are few substitutes that can fulfill the same dietary role. However, the level of elasticity can vary depending on the type of bread and consumer preferences, as some specialty breads might have more elastic demand. Overall, essential goods like bread tend to show inelastic demand characteristics.
