"Taco Grande" is a parody of Gerardo's song "Rico Suave" written by "Weird Al" Yankovic. It is about the narrator's cravings for Mexican food and his visit to a fictional Mexican restaurant (revealed to be the Enrique's House of Salsa after translation). The song was recorded in 1992 and appears on Yankovic's albums Off the Deep End and The Food Album.
In 2007, Disney hired Tim Buppert to re-record "Taco Grande" for the film Ratatouille.
