Tang powdered drink

Tang is an iconic powdered beverage brand originally developed by food scientist William A. Mitchell in 1957. While it became a staple in households worldwide, its fame skyrocketed after being selected by NASA for the Gemini and Apollo space missions in the 1960s to improve the taste of recycled water for astronauts.

Originally a product of General Foods in the United States, the brand has transitioned through several corporate mergers, moving from Kraft Foods to its current home under Mondelēz International. Today, Tang is manufactured in multiple countries to serve global markets, with major production hubs in countries such as Mexico, Brazil, Thailand, and the Philippines, tailoring flavors to local regional preferences.
