The phrase "crying with a loaf of bread under your arm" is an idiom that means to be in a state of distress or unhappiness despite having something that should bring comfort or contentment. It implies a sense of irony or contradiction between one's outward appearance or possessions and their emotional state. It suggests that material possessions or external factors are not always sufficient to alleviate emotional pain or suffering.
