Terry Gonzales was a high school drop out who still lived with his parents at twenty five and didn't have much of a future ahead of him. He managed to find work as a cashier at the El Pollo Chistoso taco stand in downtown Los Angeles. One day a strange glowing meteor collided with the stand, fusing his molecules with a stray taco. Terry vowed to use his super taco powers to protect the weak and innocent, but mostly works as the mascot for the El Pollo Chistoso corporation.
