The grocery store nearest me makes some shitty pan dulce and the one with the good shit is pretty far.

They're called puerquitos (little pigs).

That looks neato.
I've baked bread for years, but almost all of it is from the French and Italian traditions. I feel like I'm missing out on a lot of great stuff.
Could a more cosmopolitan person give me a list of some must try bread from around the world? Or just a link with some more exotic breads. I want to start making some things I haven't already made 100 times.

I've never seen pink conchas before! Just the standard off white caramel-colored ones. Now I need to find these....

The frosting on most conchas is usually just food coloring + lard (or shortening) + sugar. Color doesn't matter.

sounds like you live in flyover country. Try some bread from a real mexican bakery in a city that matters on the west coast then come back.

Mexican baking comes from French traditions, especially during the Porfirio years when he tried to Frenchify México. Bolillos are basically little baguettes. Most people in México don't bake at home they go to the panadería (boulangerie) to get their bread.
I love the sweet cheese empanadas, and the various fruit ones. The ginger puerquitos are also good.

This. It's surprising that it's shitty considering the French taught them how to bake
their sweat bread is shit tier, absolutely fucking disgusting given that they're mainly french influenced/ copies
That bread they give you for menudo though, that shit is good
The only thing I like are the puerquitos and the polvorones. I don't like anything else because they're dry and simply taste like sugar. They're meant to be dipped into a drink but I like my baked goods to stand alone.

>They're meant to be dipped into a drink
I like chasing: take a bite, chew, sip drink.
It's so dry. It's the worst pastry by nationality.

Mexican bread does not last, by mid day it already tastes like ass. I don't know enough about bread to understand why this is, but when I first moved to Mexico I got laughed at for hoarding the stuff and taking it home to eat later, only when I tasted it later did I understand why.
If I had only ever tasted four-hour-old conchas I'd hate them too.
