Taco Bell was a cynical invention by Alexander Graham Bell to sell more Bell peppers.
I feel like this is fake.
Two reasons. I was unable to find a video clip of this, and it’s not nearly racist enough for these shit-hawks.
If some has the clip, please share.
Edit: 3 reason, we’re also on a shitpost channel.
It’s definitely fake. The screenshot is from around the 4:37 timestamp.
Sadly, it doesn’t matter if he said it when it is entirely reasonable to believe that he did. It isn’t the most racist or the stupidest thing this guy has said on national television.
I mean, third reason, he’s labeled as “Homan” which seems pretty close to Human but just a bit off. And that’s simply too on-the-nose for the topic.
He knows “taco” is a Spanish word, doesn’t he?
Spanish? You mean Mexican.
They should call it by its proper English name: “corn chip sandwich.”
English? What is that some redcoat language savagery? Here in AMERICA, we speak AMERICAN!
They needed something to distract from the fact that they removed the stock ticker from their broadcast whole the market melted down
Fox news with the hard hitting journalism, as usual. And that saggy faced guy looks like he might have a coronary within the hour, someone should get him some help or he might die on tv. For now at least he is still entitled to universal health care via medicare.
Can males have resting bitch face?
That should be the real headline. Also, my toddler gets that look on his face when he is about to dump his food on the floor and cry, without actually knowing why he is crying.He looks like he’d find eating any vegetable “offensive” as well. He might eat a pudding cup.
And Luigi is an Italian name!
Again with the fascists… Stop it… We get it… Mussolini was also an Italian name
Bigotry and stupidity are two sides of the same coin.
They need to speak American in America!
Gimuh sumadem freedom wraps nooow
JFC these people are 🤡💯
i find fox news offensive
Same smh my head
I don’t speak Spanish, but based on the absolutely tiny bit I do know, would this mean quesadillas would become “little cheesies”?
So, apparently it comes from “quesada” which was a form of cheesecake, and the “illa” diminutive ending. Over time it has come to mean a fried tortilla with cheese and other fillings… except…
In Mexico City, quesadillas don’t necessarily have cheese in them. The rest of the country makes fun of them for it. But, if you’re ever in Mexico City and want a nice cheesy quesadilla, be sure to order a “quesadilla con queso”.
Damn it, now I’m hungry.
Top tier comment right here, I didn’t know this.
Now I want to try some huitlacoche. Sounds delicious.
Two spicy little donkeys with everything, three light meals for the boys, and a little cheesy for my wife, please.
little donkeys = burritos
cheesy = quesadilla
light meal? Livianos?
Taco apparently is a light meal? I don’t speak Spanish, I’m just laughing how unhinged it would sound
Cancel that cheesy, she wants a little sash
Even better, gorditas literally translate to little fat girls i believe (but maybe I’m wrong). Tbf, we have a processed sausage-alike that we call a hot dog so language and our perception of it is weird
It’s grammatical gender so it has nothing to do with girls, but it could in the right context. 😅
Fatties
Just spit balling, but it doesn’t make sense to translate things literally. A po’ boy is delicious, but eating a poor boy is generally frowned upon.
What the fuck is “taco” in English?
Probably something like a “ground beef, cheese, tomato and lettuce flatbread sandwich with a drizzle of tomato based sauce.” Which is folded like a taco and looks exactly like a taco, but is definitely not a taco.
Freedom fries 2.0
FREEDOM FOLD!
Freedom Flaps
That’s a soft taco.
With one big bean at the top end.
They’d never find it.
The oldest riddle known to man

Sandwich
Verde sauce? Not in my country. That’s green sauce!
Vagina
Sandwich?
Then what’s a torta?
Other more sandwichy sandwich
Delicious.
Turtle shaped sandwich?
I like the way you think.
Taco: Mexican Flat Round Bread Sandwich
Pita: Greek Flat Round Bread Sandwich
Pizza: Italian Flat Round Toast With Toppings
That’s perfect, let’s just say we’re having lunch at ‘Mexican Flat Round Bread Sandwich Bell’ now. Clearly, calling it Taco Bell is all part of some Democrats secret agenda to push MEXICAN on America!
Circle Sandwich.
You laugh but the Quebec government attempted to fine an Italian restaurant for having the names of their dishes in Italian, many of which have no French name.
The Canadian government is pretty weird about that aren’t they?
Nope. The Canadian government just sighs and wishes Quebec wouldn’t be such a problem.
French is the dominant language in Quebec?
I’m not sure if this is supposed to be a joke or something, but yes. More than 90% of the people in Quebec speak French. More than 50% speak English, but for most it’s a second language.
No, it was a genuine question. I did not know It was mainly used as a first language in Quebec. I thought it was a semi-common second laguage for Canadians.
No, only in Quebec. There’s a bit of French spoken in Ontario (especially on the border with Quebec), and maybe 30% of the population in New Brunswick, but in other provinces it’s not even the second most spoken language.
For example, Manitoba’s most widely spoken languages are 1M English, 33k Tagalog, 30k Punjabi, 19k German and 15k French.
Quebec government, specifically. Other provinces only require government services to be provided in both French and English but private businesses can mostly do what they want. Quebec requires private business to be conducted in French unless the customer requests service in a different language. Any non-French text or speech made to a customer before they request it can be seen as a violation. They can be a little overzealous at times.
What’s the menu like for Indian restaurants in Quebec? Are there French names for Biryani, Paratha, Paneer etc?
At a certain point I have to assume they just slap a bunch of "le"s on and call it a day
The government eventually said exotic dishes with no French name are allowed as an exception. Looking up menus of Indian places in Montreal shows they have completely Indian names for many of their dishes.
Damn, I’ve heard jokes about quebecios being snobby with their French but that seems excessive.
Which makes it all the more hilarious that the French people I know have joked about Quebec speaking “garbage French”
They’re not at all snobby. The French in France are snobby. If you try to speak to them in French and it isn’t Parisian-style french, they’ll try to switch languages on you because they can’t bear to have their dear language mangled like that.
The Quebecois aren’t snobby, they’re just obnoxious about preserving their language and culture. And it gets pretty absurd. Around the world stop signs say “STOP” even in French speaking countries. But, in Quebec they mostly say “Arret”, and when a local English-speaking community has stop signs that say stop, vigilantes sometimes change them to Arret.
There are certainly stories of overzealous enforcement, but the context of Loi 101 and its amendments is worth considering.
Québecois is really interesting. It has a lot of old, outdated French in it due to the colonial connection with France being severed hundreds of years ago, where it evolved distinctly and the locals made different decisions on what to change and how to adapt to new concepts.
One could argue the French government has been obsessive about policing language much longer with the académie française.
Damn, I’ve heard jokes about quebecios being snobby with their French but that seems excessive
It’s not snobby. From an anglo perspective, here’s how it plays out in reality:
WAITER: Qu’est-ce que vous voudrais? ME: Huh? WAITER: What would you like? ME: {proceeds to order}
…And life goes on.
I mean that’s fine, but the fact that it’s required under penalty of law is absolutely excessive
What happened with that change to signage laws that was going to require tens of millions of dollars to update eg “Canadian Tire” to “Magasin Canadian Tire” and whatnot?
They’d deport the Taco Bell dog if it was still alive.
Man I forgot how much I loved seeing him in commercials as a kid 🥹
me too, vern
I think I’ll need a bigger box.
