Could be an opening salvo in the franchise wars. My money is on Taco Bell.

Where’s John Spartan when you need him?

But then, there was no evidence of an MDK.

I first heard of the Taco Bell in the summer of 1979, when Supertramp featured it in one of their songs ("Gone Hollywood") from the Breakfast in America album:

I'm in this dumb motel
Near the Taco Bell
Without a hope in hell
I can't believe that I'm still around

That was a brilliant album by the way but Supertramp never came close to that kind of excellence again.

A few years later, I would go to a Taco Bell for real, probably around 1983. During the 1990s, I became a regular lunch time customer and I would order a six pack of tacos. Those were my fat days. I really liked those tacos. But they had to be the tacos in the crispy shells. I never did like when they wrapped tacos in those soft flour tortillas. That's not really a taco in my opinion.
