* LifeguardFanservice: A 90s ad featured several boys on a beach gawking at a sexy female lifeguard (played by Debbe Dunning) while she lunches on a quesadilla. One boy works up the nerve to talk to her, and ends up fainting... and when she muses about giving him mouth to mouth, his friends faint too.

* {{Animesque}}: Their "Fry Force" ads of 2021. Not only are they presented as movie trailers, but the entire fictional movie is a spoof of ''[[Film/PacificRim Pacific Rim]]'', which is itself an homage to mecha anime and tokusatsu movies. Taco Bell would later [[ExaggeratedTrope take this up to eleven]] by publishing a [[https://www.tacobell.com/news/taco-bell-nacho-fries-are-back-fry-force-edition prequel comic]] drawn and designed to be read from right to left, as many East Asian comics are published.

It's safe to say their earlier years were better in terms of quality, and as time went on, there was ExecutiveMeddling, so the quality was bound to go down along with its business layout. They started in 1962 by [[MeaningfulName Glen Bell]], who got his start when he was shown how the Mitla Cafe, a Mexican-themed restaurant in San Bernando, California where Bells' hot dog stand had been at the time, made tacos. He started a stand that sold tacos with the knowledge he now had, settling on the name Taco Bell after going through a few names (the first of the names was Taco Tia).
