Grape Tang
Do you remember when Tang was first introduced? I thought that it was in the 60s, but it was actually in the marketplace in 1959. It did not become popular until 1965 though when NASA began using it on their Gemini flights. It traveled to the moon in 1969 and that is what made it so cool to drink! Orange Tang is still around today.
There was another flavor, though, Grape! We used to buy that not as frequently, and it wasn’t nearly as popular. According to http://www.inthe70s.com, Grape Tang is still available in other countries, just not in the United States.
