    I haven't seen any Taco Bell's in the UK so I can't really boycott them.

    Do people know to boycott Bacardi, Martini and drink Havana Club instead (except in the US cos Havana Club in the US is Bacardi sold as Havana Club (which is illegal under international law))

    Taco Bell is owned by the same company that owns KFC and Pizza Hut, which is Pepsi Co.....and I know you have KFC and Pizza Hut in England....and there's like one Taco Bell in London somewhere

    Yes, besides the normal capitalist exploitation, they hire death squads in Colombian to kill and torture union members in their factories there.
