It's really quite a feat, flying to the moon and taking a walk there, when you think about it. It was quite a time, JFK, the space race with Russia, and the television broadcast with Walter Cronkite. I was just a kid, but remember hearing about the astronauts and how strong they were because of their special diet...yes, shamelessly advertised over and over....How come this hasn't been advertised lately for a huge 50 year comeback like all the coin tributes we're seeing?

I like Tang.
Good question. The same company that owns Tang, owns Oreo's, and we know what they did....


And the package even glowed in the dark!
Then too, it's reported that in 2013, Buzz Aldrin declared "Tang sucks," so maybe they didn't want the past brought up...
I never liked Tang... did not taste like real orange juice (which I drink every day) at all....I like my orange juice and coins to be authentic....
Among other things....

Great. Now all I can think of is the episode of That 70s Show where Kitty serves sausage and Tang for breakfast.
