TANG:

Yes, the drink of Champions is made in Chad. I know, sounds weird huh! But lemme explain. They chose Chad (Choose Chad!!) to be the makers of Tang for 2 reasons.

A) It's a remote desolate area wih plenty of room for a factory!

2) Workers are cheap and paid in beetles

So, where was I, TANG! It rules! See TANG page for complete history of this product!!!!
