A blunt critique of Mexican bread by a British baker sparked a cascade of social media outrage, ultimately leading to a public apology.
In an interview for a few themed podcasts that resurfaced online, Richard Hart and the co-founder of Green Rhino Bakery in Mexico City and a well-known figure in international baking circles said Mexicans don't really have much of a bread culture, adding that they make sandwiches on these white, ugly rolls and are pretty cheap and industrially made.
His comments quickly ripped across Instagram, TikTok, and X, with many Mexicans accusing him of being demissive and insulting of Mexico's traditional bread. He has since made an apology on Instagram.
