Some weird assumptions in your math:

-The cost to produce a loaf of bread is $0 above the raw wheat cost

-The cost to distribute a loaf of bread to all of humanity is $0

-A loaf of bread is sufficient to healthily sustain a starving person

I mean yeah, even if the final number was 20% of your "math", it would be a lot of bread. But the answer to world hunger isn't "let's take all the F-22 money and use it to make bread!"
