Some bakery departments in grocery stores will sell half loaves of their bakery fresh bread. If you don't see it on their shelves, you can ask them to break apart a loaf for you. The store/company I work at does this. It never hurts to ask to ask! Otherwise, you can always freeze the other half too!

I don't understand the bakery's problem. My dad is in the same situation and they have no problem cutting a loaf of bread in half and putting it in the slicing machine for him ...
I guess it depends on which area you live. May be it would be a good idea to do a survey in your area and present the results to the local bakeries?

If your dad lives in the UK then quite a few supermarkets sell half loaves precisely for the reason you describe. An alternative proposal is to select a small loaf and get the bakery section to slice it for him.

yes you can buy a half loaf of bread at a bakery bread shop or at a fruit shop

very good thinking...i bet that if you call Wonder bread or some major bread company and tell them the idea that it just might happen.
i would definitely buy half loafs of bread....
that is a fricken awesome idea...

????
Isn't that possible in the States ? (guess you're from the states...) Strange...
All bakery bread in the Netherlands can be bought in halves, as long as I can remember (I must have been about 5 when I bought my first half bread, more than 40 years ago)

Keep half of the bread out then put the other half in the freezer.

You can always freeze half and defrost it when you need it.
