Question Sugar Free Tang Where are you?

Hi gang,

My dietian told me I could have sugar free tang, and I noticed a receipe here using it. But I cant find it! Do any of you know where I can buy some? I found some on E-Bay but not by the cannister - by the case. If I knew I liked it, it wouldnt be that bad, but not knowing I dont want to gamble with that much money with my taste buds mixed up.

Thanks

haven't seen the tang. Have you tried crystal light and lipton powder to add to water? There are orange flavors. I don't know if I ever had tang (certainly not as an adult).

Thumbs up Sugar free tang is great!!!

I have used sugar free tang the last 5 years. I found it a walmart, and safeway. It is not by the canister it is by the little tubs. There are four to a package. Each little tum make a pitcher. It is great tasting and it is worth it.

check the label though
regular tang is the only powdered juice i know that has added FAT, and no one needs that in a juice!

When I finally tried the orange flavored packets (Wyler is my favorite), I thought "wow, this reminds me of tang!". I'm actually drinking some right now.

I bought some 1L sports bottles that look like mini-water cooler bottles at walmart. They have a pull up spout to drink from. I put two packets of a flavor in and viola something to drink for a while! They are also great for the gym cuz I always drank two water bottles, now I only have to bring one. I have five of these (one in use, other 4 in fridge) so I always have a bunch of flavors to pick from.

Good luck on your quest.

I ordered Sugar Free Tang from Amazon.com after my local store quit carrying it, and I couldn't find it anywhere. It worked out great!

I make up a pitcher of it, then use it as my 8oz of liquid when I use the Matrix Orange Cream protein powder. I put it all in a blender bottle (the shaker with the ball), and mix it together ... then add a teaspoon of sugar free vanilla flavoring, some ice cubes, and voila! It tastes like I'm drinking a 50/50 bar!!!!!

MMMMMMMMMMMMMM
