  1. (Ireland) a pre-sliced loaf of pan bread
    • 1959 November 18, Jack Lynch, “Questions; Oral Answers — Flour and Bread Subsidy”, in Dáil Debates‎[1], Oireachtas:
      In each case increases have taken place over a range of bread, from batch loaves to sliced pans, whose price goes from 1/1¼d. to 1/2¾d. and in no case has the increase been more than a farthing.
    • 2021 February 12, Gráinne Ní Aodha, “The cost of bread in Ireland could be about to rise by 9% because of Brexit”, in TheJournal.ie‎[2]:
      It’s not possible to simply switch to importing industrial flour from the EU, because Ireland and the UK are the only countries to use the type of flour to make sliced pans. ... And it’s unlikely that Irish tastes will change from the sliced pan to croissants or a baguette… I can’t see people eating a crisp baguette instead of a crisp sandwich.
