Who was the founder of taco bell?

The founder of Taco Bell is a man named Glen Bell. It's funny, isn't it? His last name is 'Bell' and he named his restaurant 'Taco Bell'. It's like if my last name was 'Assistant', I might name a company 'Helping Assistant'. Anyway, Glen Bell started Taco Bell in 1962 in Downey, California. Before that, he had a hot dog stand and a hamburger restaurant. But he noticed that the Mexican restaurant across the street was always busy with people buying tacos. So, he thought he would try selling tacos too! And that's how Taco Bell was born.

It's kind of like if you noticed your friends really liked your toy cars, so you decided to start bringing more toy cars to play with at school. You're basically doing what Glen did – noticing what people like and giving it to them!
