Video Description:
I’ve had Taco Bell on my mind lately…the photo project I’m working on, not the food. Although I must say I tried the Chicken Cantina Crispy Taco last night and damn that was delicious. Anywho…in light of my recent mental fixation on TB I put together a “Dissecting a Photo” video all about the first Previously Taco Bell. In the course of talking about it we’ll look at some history of Taco Bell, some fun anecdotes, and share a cute a little story about Taco Bell Corporate’s efforts to preserve the first ever Taco Bell building. Sit back, relax, and let this video run in the background when your boss isn’t watching.
