Ask Not For Whom Taco Bell Tolls

Or
Yo Quiero Coumadin
Gidget, the Chihuahua from the Taco Bell commercials, has died of a stroke at the age of 15, 73 in dog years. In the most racist thing to hit TV since Slowpoke Gonzalez and the Frito Bandito, the annoying little rat dog was depicted as a Mexican revolutionary and a bandit, among other things, with its catchphrase "¡Yo quiero Taco Bell!"entering the pop culture lexicon. Gidget’s handlers kept her in the annoying aisle, appearing in a GEICO commercial with the gecko, and a cameo in Legally Blonde 2 as Reese Witherspoon’s Chihuahua Bruiser’s mother. How you could possibly tell these stupid dogs apart is beyond me, but the commercials and other appearances helped make them de riguer arm candy for idiots.
