Purchase Price: $1.97
Purchase Place: Wal-Mart
Rating: 3.0
Pros: Fortified with vitamins. Only 40 calories. Kosher. Not that much sugar.
Cons: It’s not a kick in a glass. Weak orange. Tastes watered down. Not sweet enough.
I enjoy the taste of orange juice sometimes. I am a firm believer that oranges > apples. Tang does not do the trick for me. The commercials for Tang make the juice seem very strong. Tang provides all the nutritional values of a normal orange juice, except it tastes watered down. Now this seems silly since it’s just powder and you just add water.
No matter how much powder you put into your drink, your juice will never reach the thickness of real orange juice. The “kick in a glass” tag line is misleading. This may be nice for sissies who believe that orange juice is too acidic for you because Tang doesn’t taste as “sour.” Tang is a less sweet Sunny Delight.
I purchased this drink as an impulsive buy but I do not regret it. Tang is a nice complementary drink to my dinners. If you like orange juice but think it’s too strong and sweet, then Tang was made for you.

A WHILE AGO WE PURCHASED YOUR TANG BREAKFAST DRINK, AND HAD NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS BEFORE NOW…WHEN I WENT TO OPEN IT, I SAW THESE SMALL BLACK SPECS MIXED IN WITH THE POWDER.
I CALLED THE STORE WHERE I BOUGHT IT AT. AND BECAUSE I HAD THROWN MY RECEIPT AWAY, THEY WOULD OR COULD NOT HELP ME.
SO I THREW THE WHOLE CONTAINER AWAY, BECAUSE THERE IS TOO MUCH CRAZINESS GOING ON OUT THERE NOW WITH FOOD AND OTHER PRODUCTS, SO I WAS NOT TAKING ANY CHANCES.
I JUST WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW ABOUT MY SITUATION, AND IN THE FUTURE WILL BE LEARY OF BUYING YOUR PRODUCTS…
THANK YOU

Interesting review, Ms. Rousey. Funny that it’s EXACTLY THE SAME as your review of this other, COMPLETELY DIFFERENT product. If you’re going to spam food blogs with comments in attempts to get free coupons, you should a) consider doing different reviews for each product, and b) consider making these comments to the actual companies themselves, and not third parties who don’t actually manufacture the products.

Ms. Rousey, I’m not even going to delete your comment because it’s so funny. I’m tempted to mail you a fake coupon for the hell of it.

My last purchase of Tang takes twice as much product to get the same concentration of flavor as my previous purchase. It doesn’t cost half as much. Bye Tang.
