Um, actually Mr Bell was working at a Mexican restaurant prior to launching Taco Bell and the owners of that restaurant came up with the idea of the crunchy taco shell. Get your facts right Taco Bell as it's a bad look to be rewriting history in this day and age. I know that was standard practice for decades but now with the internet and social media you can't get away with it anymore. Suggest you update this video with the real story as it is still great and Mr Bell is still a visionary without the need to tweak the truth. All love. CHEERS

I remember when they had a bell burger it was a burger patties with a little bit of taco seasoned meat on it too. I use to buy the all the time in the sixties . No one knows what they are anymore. This isn't Yvoria this is her mom writing.

Almost none of that is true. Glen had a hamburger & hotdog stand with a partner, a mexican place around the corner sold crunchy tacos one day a week as a special. Glen loved them. Sold hamburger stand, opened crunchy taco stand.

Are you guys ever going to have a cool ranch dorito taco or even one of those sweet chili taco shells for your tacos currently you only have the original nacho cheese taco shell which is good but it's not personally my favorite flavor of Doritos to be honest and I'm wondering when the H you guys going to bring back that chocolate taco that was like kind of like a ice cream dessert that you guys had

I used to love taco bell, i ate there everyday pretty much but thier quality control has took a turn for the worse. Try a bean burrito with dry chunky old beans. Almost everyday here in my town. Me and several other people just stopped going there. We go to another taco place that opened in our town.

Ever since they dropped potato tacos and pico, my wife and I hate them now. We’re both vegetarian, and for a while they had a lot of different options, now they’re “streamlining”...which is just forcing a smaller menu on us that’s easier to rush out the window and get us out of the way. Sorry TB, but you basically canceled yourself as far as me and my wallet are concerned.
