Sounds like a plausible ratio.  However, you're still talking carload
quantities.  The difference is not likely to make the white flour more than
a few percent cheaper than the whole wheat (and the cost of the flour isn't
that large a fraction of the price of the bread anyway).


Of course, there was a time when white bread was the fancy, expensive
stuff...
