Price Club is an amazing play on the name.

But how good is Taco Bell? Stick the last name into the brand, then shove the image of a bell into the logo for no particular reason as far as Mexican-inspired food is concerned. Guess the proof’s in the pudding.

Unilever: it was the brothers’ marriage into business! They became one. …not sure if they co-CEO’d it though.

Nah dude it's a really more clever than that, first image when you look up "california missions" is:

Those arches have the exact kind of bell in them that Taco Bell uses in their logo, and you can even still find TBs designed to LOOK like the missions, solidifying the connection even more.

So yeah it's his last name, but they actuslly tied it to Mexican history
