Why do so many junk foods contain orange powder?
I present to you:

Doritos
Cheetos
Tang
Kraft Macaroni & Cheese

And the list goes on...do we really consider this stuff appetizing?

Orange powder scares me, Mommy! :scared:

At least that's what I tell myself.

4. Tang is delicious
I wish there was some sort of fruit that tasted like tang..I don't know..maybe some sort of orange, round fruit that peeled into sections..

I wish...I'll just keep drinking my powdery goodness

5. Yes. And soon, maybe man will discover some sort of
slightly tart milk-by product that tastes kind of like the orange powder in Kraft Mac & Cheese.

We can only hope...
