Glen Bell died this past weekend. He was the founder of Taco Bell – the now ubiquitous face of Mexican fast food in the U.S.

The original Taco Bell
He started Taco Bell in California in 1962, after owning several other quick-serve eateries. In 1978, there were 868 of them spread across the U.S. He sold them to Pepsico. Today the chain, now serving 36.8 million customers a week, is owned by YUM brands, the largest restaurant owner in the world.
Could use more of him today

Glen Bell
Bell didn’t retire: he started a demonstration farm that taught kids about agriculture, how their food gets from farm to table, and how to respect the earth and the farmers who tends it. He was a partner with 4-H - an organization that still focuses on the importance of agriculture around the world.
