Actually, correct me if I’m wrong but I don’t think PepsiCo owns Yum!, at least not in the same way Yum! owns the aforementioned subsidiaries.
In any case, I still see it as unlikely that Taco Bell will become the owner of everything, doubly so if it is owned by “Yum! which is owned by PepsiCo” rather than just “owned by Yum!” as that is just another layer down for Taco Bell they’d have to climb out of, just to be owned by themselves, before they can start buying companies to own.
Who is the parent organization of Yum! Brands? That would be PepsiCo
Spun off in ‘97 I guess but that’s not really the same as selling from my understanding
Edit: they are legally distinct entities that answer to largely the same shareholders after some research
