Death Comes for the Taco Bell Chihuahua

Yea, the bell also tolls for thee, sweet hairless Gordita-hawking Latino caricature, sweet poster child for bowel-enraging soggy approximation of meat wrapped in tortilla, sweet, sweet Chihuahua de Taco Bell.

Gidget (the dog’s real name) was perhaps the most famous chihuahua in cinema history.  Beverly Hills Chihuahua?  Take that grade-school sh*t back to the playground.  The Taco Bell Chihuahua understood the pangs and desperations of adulthood.  ”Yo quiero Taco Bell,” the chihuahua mourned.  And we all knew exactly how he felt.  We knew the deep, deep quiero of a Taco Bell relapse, the pull, the high, the white-knuckle crash of the Chalupa’s seduction.  A YouTube remembrance of one of our most haunting artists of addiction, after the jump.  

Gidget was 15.

This is a personal favorite.  The chihuahua is at a fancy restaurant with a date all like, “You call this a menu?  Where are the 20 items for a buck or less?”  And then he’s like, f*ck this, baby, I’m taking you to the Bell.
