Tang, the orange flavoured breakfast drink, is so synonymous with NASA that people seem to think the space agency invented it. Even Homer Simpson somehow called up NASA to demand why he couldn't get "no Tang 'round here!" But contrary to popular belief NASA didn't invent Tang. That honour goes to William Mitchell, the guy who also invented Pop Rocks and Cool Whip.
