I remember when, growing up in the 60s, there were only 4 fast food joints nearby where I lived in south Denver. There was Mickey D's, an A&W Root Beer drive in, a Bell Taco (not Taco Bell), and a joint called the The Red Barn. I flipped burgers for a while at The Red Barn, and hated it. Then I got a "real job" at a car wash, and then I joined the Army when the 1973 test gasoline shortage hit Colorado - a year before the Arab Oil Embargo. No local Burger King, Taco Bell, or anything else close by.

People today don't realize how their lives have been changed by fast food - and not for the better.

Do you mean Dell Taco?
Nope, Bell Taco. Started by the brother of Glen Bell, the guy that started Taco Bell. Bell Taco is long gone, but they got a lot of my money as a teenager. Funny, I can't even find a reference to them on Google or Wikipedia.
