All items have value. If I were the flood victim, I owuldn't be happy to be paying $20/loaf. But I'd sure be glad that I had something to feed my kid.

Why does it have to be either/or? Why not sell the bread at a reasonable rate? Say 20% above the pre flood price. Or better yet… donate the bread and get free publicity and tons of good will. Assuming a normal price of $4 a loaf $20 would be a 400% mark-up! That’s not making a decent profit, that’s obscene greed!
