    I like Tango. Its a drink that deserves to be in the USA.

    We had something called Tang here... an orange flavoured drink...

    Yeah, I'm that many years old too. I was surprised to find it came in other flavors when I was a student in Prague in 2000. I used to get the apricot and the watermelon versions, dump the powder into my empty water bottles and have it waiting for me after a nite out with friends at the hospodas. The beer was very good as well.

    The only Tango I could find is a fruit-flavored carbonated drink in the
    UK. We have Orange/Pinapple/Strawberry Crush here, but the last time I
    had one was in high school, playing Dungeons and Dragons.

    We have Tang on this side of the Pacific as well, it was the ASTRONAUT'S
    DRINK when I was growing up. Those and some horrid breakfast sticks were apparently derived from food used in the Apollo program.



    ... Is the tuning appropriate?

    Over here, I don't think it was ever sold with a link to the space program but I could be wrong.
