Video of the Day: Coming soon – “Hoy Rogers”

A few days ago we mentioned how Taco Bell will expand into Mexico after a disastrous attempt in 1992 and how some were not pleased with the notion of “Americanized” Mexican food being sold in Mexico.

“The Daily Show” host Jon Stewart commented on Taco bell’s return south of the border and how:

“At last Mexicans will have access to Mexican food.”

Yes, finally authentic Mexican food will be enjoyed be Mexicans.

Quote of the Day: Food for “fresas”

"It's like bringing ice to the Arctic."

--Mexican “pop culture historian” Carlos Monsivais is none too happy over restaurant chain Taco Bell reopening in Mexico for the first time since 1992.

Taco Bell execs presented the reintroduction of the brand in Mexico as “a new fast-food alternative” though Monsivais bemoaned that the “absurd idea…may just be successful in upper-class areas.”
