Tang is actually still being made. It just comes in different containers now. I remember in the 1960s when the space race was going strong and the ads for Tang were about the astronauts drinking it, all the kids wanted their parents to buy Tang.

I know this has been posted in one of the other "Things you don't see anymore" threads, but I was wondering if anyone knew if the song they used to sing on the commercial (Whee-lo, Whee-lo, wee it's a lot of fun) was located somewhere on the internet.
Here is a video of a motorized Wheel-O display.
Thanks for the reply.
What I'm really interested in though is the song (and lyrics) sung in the old commercial.
Yeah, made me not want to be an astronaut. Now, if they had scotch.....Tang is actually still being made. It just comes in different containers now.

Saw an episode of Barry'd Treasure recently where Barry hooks up a couple of guys and one paid the other $50,000 for Evel's blue leathers.![]()
