"Taco Grande," by "Weird Al" Yankovic, is a parody of Gerardo's song, "Rico Suave." It is about the narrator's cravings for Mexican food and his visit to a fictional Mexican restaurant (revealed to be "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. The spoken Spanish verse during the song's bridge is performed by Cheech Marin.

In 2007, Disney hired Tim Buppert to re-record "Taco Grande" for the film Ratatouille.
