FunFax! Mama Cass Elliot and Pablo Picasso have in common that they are sometimes said to have choked to death on food… but both died of a natural cause, namely a heart attack. Also, Elliott was capable of a fairly limited vocal range and Picasso was only a mediocre artist until traumatic head injury (being knocked unconscious by running into plumbing pipes in the dark) somehow gifted both with transcendent artistic abilities.
The chalupa isn’t mentioned in his Wikipedia entry. I’ll have to go in and make the change and use this as my reference source. I’m sure it will be approved.

FunFax: Ambrose Bierce, Leon Trotsky, Marty Feldman, Kirsty MacColl and Pat Paulsen were all famous non-Mexicans who died in Mexico.
