I’m going to have a Mexican Pizza from Taco Bell tomorrow to honor this man. Its the best Mexican Pizza (seriously).
Glen W. Bell Jr., whose idea in 1951 to sell crispy-shell tacos from the window of his hamburger stand became the foundation of Taco Bell, the restaurant chain that turned Mexican fare into fast food for millions of Americans, died at his home in Rancho Santa Fe, Calif. He was 86.
