Taco Bell was started by a white guy named Mr. Bell. He had a hot dog stand that wasn't doing so well, and talked a Mexican restaurant that always had a line out the door into teaching him how to make tacos. He moved the stand across town and made so much money that he started his own store.

Carl's Jr, and In N Out have similar origin stories.
