<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>When Alex Fong and Stephy Tang&#8217;s names are both on one song, you can be certain that there is another duet coming your way! This song literally translating to Seven Years, probably displaying their 7 years relationship or whatever. Anyways, this is another good duet song from them (their duets are pretty famous in Hong Kong  and in other areas), and adds to their duet collection. Here is a KTV karaoke version found on best friend youtube, yea the quality isn;t the best, but you can still watch the whole MV and the sound is pretty clear as well. What more can you ask for?</p>
<p>Check it out, their new duet! Enjoy!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p> &#62;Long time ago, Korean citizens goes to seolleong-tang restaurant. They are very easy to make and easy to get materials. They are made of beef(it&#8217;s not for steak. this part is just leftover.) and water. That&#8217;s all. You can think &#8216;Oh, it&#8217;s nothing, it might be  untasty!&#8217; like this. but don&#8217;t regret about yourself, because it is extremely delicious.</p>
<p> <img src="http://codename25.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/ec84a4eba081ed8395.jpg?w=150" alt="설렁탕" title="설렁탕" width="150" height="118" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-49" />Popular Korean food : seolleong-tang<br />
&#62;Seolleong-tang&#8217;s origin came from ancient ceremony. this ceremony is held in Seonnongdan and give pray to god, &#8216;Please give us a nice harvest!&#8217;. Ancient Korean dynasty and nobles prepare cows, pigs and rice. End of the ceremony, the king and public servants plowing a field for three times. Next, they makes food for citizens. One of these foods is seolleong-tang. Cooks are make soup with cow and give a lot of soup to old men and farmers. This soup was named seonnongtang. But it become seolleong-tang now.</p>
<p>&#62;Seolleong-tang is still popular these days. Even seolleong-tang starts from cheap food, but it have developed for a long time. It has a good taste, good nutrition for human body. You can enjoy seolleong-tang in other countries like America, because Koreans are operating many Korean restaurants. You can try seolleong-tang, if you have a will for Korean food and 5000 won or so.</p>

Already half-drunk by parched throats all alone</p>
<p>After saying what should have been unsaid.<br />
How did I know it tasted like the stupid sugar in Tang?</p>
<p>“You always black out,” she reminded me.  “Sorry,”<br />
“It’s not that.  You can forget your stupidity all you like,</p>
<p>But you forget I still say I love you after that.”  Her sister laughed.<br />
When you’re old enough to chuckle at your nightmares,</p>
<p>You want one to scare you.  “I fooled you that I was in love,”<br />
I stated, “by falling in love with you.” That shut her sister up.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><a href="http://www.myspace.com/coalesce">Coalesce</a> has been one of those bands that I&#8217;ve listened to for years, but all that listening has been via one album that I can&#8217;t get tired of:  <em>Functioning On Impatience.</em> They have a decent discography, but I just haven&#8217;t been able to move on from that album.  Same thing with <a href="http://www.nickcaveandthebadseeds.com/">Nick Cave &#38; The Bad Seeds</a>.  <em>Let Love In</em> is one of those albums that hit my ears at just the right time in my life (going into a serious relationship and then getting dumped fucking hard), so it held some precedence in my life for quite some time.  Not until two weeks back or so was I able to jump ship with <em>Murder Ballads</em>.  Holy shit&#8230; Nick Cave is a storyteller to say the least.  That man has the ability to weave words with music and it creeps under my skin.  Like telling ghost stories and giving yourself goosebumps, that&#8217;s what <em>Murder Ballads </em>has been doing for me.  Let&#8217;s bring this around full-circle though.</p>
<p>Coalesce has the <em><a href="http://lambgoat.com/news/view.aspx?id=13534">OXEP</a></em> streaming from <a href="http://lambgoat.com/">lambgoat</a> (a great news source on heavier music, but sometimes you gotta sift through garbage <a href="http://blogs.houstonpress.com/rocks/juggalos%202.jpg">soda-drinker</a> bands to find the real meat).  It&#8217;s their new EP, which is following up the recent<em> OX</em> full-length that I&#8217;ve only put to my ears once &#8211; earlier today &#8211; and it jammed along just fine.  I gave the EP a run through twice and it seems like I may be making the move onto a new album finally.  The stream is only up for a short while, so don&#8217;t be lazy about it because you gotta do this &#8220;thing&#8221; for a friend, when we all know you&#8217;re just gonna get high and whack-it.  It&#8217;s obvious.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-77" title="skinner" src="http://seancampbellmccoy.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/skinner.jpg" alt="skinner" width="460" height="645" /></p>
<p>I found this in a book of illustrations at my buddies place today.  <a href="http://www.krishannum.com/">Kris</a> went and saw <em>Where The Wild Things Are</em> at IMAX and apparently got a lot of free swag.  <a href="http://www.theartofskinner.com/">Skinner Davis</a> is the man with the skills here and the work he has up on his site gave me a decent lot of eye-boners.  I&#8217;ve always dug bright colors in art, especially neon, dayglo, blacklight bullshit (beginning of <em>Belly</em> is the bees-tits, not knees) so it makes sense why I&#8217;d watch Busta Rhymes video for<em> <a href="http://www.spike.com/video/busta-rhymes-put/2787304">Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Can See</a></em> countless times in middle school.  I doubt it had anything to do with the big, busty, bouncy, Black ladies though.  Oh <a href="http://www.interestment.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/grier.jpg">Pam Grier</a>, why won&#8217;t you return any of the imaginary phone calls I make to you in my mind.  She&#8217;s such a tease.</p>
<p>Shit son, music and art all in one swing.  I&#8217;d call that a God damn success in culture if you ask me.  Don&#8217;t you feel better about yourself now?  You can pour out all that Tang you&#8217;ve been drinking and stop munching on partially cooked fish sticks.  Even though you say, &#8220;I don&#8217;t mind that it&#8217;s cold in the middle,&#8221; we all know you&#8217;re full of shit.  It&#8217;s kinda sad.  You needa&#8217; head down to the corner store and pick yourself up a 40 of Steele Reserve, OJ, and peanut M&#38;M&#8217;s.  Now that&#8217;s a meal for refined people, which you can now classify yourself into.  Just find a nice stoop to post up on and share what you learned with a stranger or two.  Hell, offer them some of your drink too.  I don&#8217;t know anyone that dislikes a good ol&#8217; Brass Monkey.  Except maybe Canadians; they only like the band Rush.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>The first time I did this was in a 7X7 dormitory room of mine far away from home. Food was good there no doubt. But I yearned for fresh tang in my meals. One of my co-workers, who also stayed on campus, had bought lemons to take home. He asked if I want a few. I told him sure I’ll pickle them. He gave me the lot asked me what else I need for making pickles. We agreed on an arrangement where we split responsibilities to make pickles and enjoy them too.</p>
<p>I had few lemons remaining with me and when I got no one to take them I made this stock pickle and it was with ginger and it was a super-duper hit on campus. This pickle created a homely atmosphere away from home to many of us.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><a title="warm moments shared" href="http://tagastar.wordpress.com/2009/11/02/nimboo-da-achar/" target="_blank"><strong>Lemon pickle – <em>simply classic</em></strong></a></p>
<p>(For lime or lemons)</p>
<p>For pickling 500 grams of lemon you’ll require 750 grams of lemons</p>
<p>For the <em>stock</em> pickle you’ll need:</p>
<p>Lemons 750 grams</p>
<p>Salt &#8211; about 10 Tbsps</p>
<p>Red Chilly powder &#8211; 6 Tbsps heaped</p>
<p>Turmeric powder &#8211; 4 Tbsps heaped</p>
<p>One clean wide-mouthed bottle with a well-fitting cap.</p>
<p>A wide glass bowl will be ideal to make this, next in order of preference can be given to a plastic bowl (food grade) and only next option is a stainless steel bowl.</p>
<p>A lemon press, one other container to press the lemon juice into.</p>
<p>Do not store pickles in plastic. Glass bottles or ceramic jars are always the best.</p>
<p>Method:</p>
<p>Clean the lemons thoroughly and wipe them, or else lay them on an absorbent cloth. Caution must be taken not to soak lemons in water for long; this will cause the loss of aromatic oils.</p>
<p>Cut the lemons, for the pickle 500 grams. If lemons are small then make only quarters. If lemons are large make 8 pieces from every lemon. Make halves, then quarters and halves of the quarters. This is an ideal size for serving.</p>
<p>Make halves of the remaining 250 grams of lemons.</p>
<p>Collect the juice of halved lemons in a container with a teaspoon of salt.</p>
<p>In  a wide bowl combine the lemon pieces with turmeric, red chilli powder, and salt.</p>
<p>After thorough mixing transfer the contents into the jar. Pour the pressed lemon juice on top of it. Close the jar and leave it in a cool dark place.</p>
<p>After a day use a dry ladle and stir the pickle in the jar. This day one can check the sharpness and the chilly of the pickle and adjust it according one’s taste. It can be corrected accordingly.</p>
<p>To make the pickle more sour or tangy add more lemon juice, and salt must be added along with it.</p>
<p>In case of chilly powder in it then add to it lemons and lemon juice and salt to even it out.</p>
<p>Store in a dark well ventilated clean spot.</p>
<p>This can be refrigerated too.</p>
<p>It is ready to be used in a week’s time.</p>
<p>If one finds it too sour or sharp then add about a table-spoon of fenugreek seeds, stir well with a dry ladle and let it sit for a week.</p>
<p>This like I‘ve said before is a classic pickle that can be had like this plain by itself and can also be used as a stock.</p>
<p><em><span style="color:#cd3273;"><strong>For more variety and spice</strong></span></em></p>
<p><em><span style="color:#cd3273;">Fine strips or pieces of ginger, bitter gourd, carrots green chilies can be added to the stock few days before consumption. <span style="text-decoration:underline;">This pickle must be refrigerated</span>.</span></em></p>
<p><em><span style="color:#cd3273;">A tempering made of mustard, asafoetida and curry leaves in oil of your choice can be mixed with it.</span></em></p>
<p><em><span style="color:#cd3273;">Do this in small batches, like for one round of the service bowl, else the oil in tempering and the lemon aroma splits and the pickle does not smell well after few days.</span></em></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>By Wu Song<br />
<a href="http://www.theepochtimes.com/n2/content/view/6146/">Epoch Times</a> Germany Staff</p>
<p>“Toward the ocean in the east, toward the mountains in the south, one need not lock his door, and travelers need not carry food reserves…” there truly was a prosperous time in China – the Tang Dynasty.</p>
<p>“The emperor depends on the state, but the state depends on its people. When one oppresses the people, so that it only serves the ruler, then it is like one is ripping out someone’s flesh in order to fill that person’s stomach. His stomach is satisfied, but his body is injured: The ruler may then be richer, but his state is destroyed.” &#8211; Taizong</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">
<div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 262px"><a href="http://www.theepochtimes.com/n2/images/stories/large/2008/10/24/TangTaizong.jpg"><img class="   " title="Tang Taizong, one of the most famous and well-respected figures in Chinese history. (Public domain image) " src="http://www.theepochtimes.com/n2/images/stories/large/2008/10/24/TangTaizong.jpg" alt="Tang Taizong, one of the most famous and well-respected figures in Chinese history. (Public domain image) " width="252" height="521" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Tang Taizong, one of the most famous and well-respected figures in Chinese history. (Public domain image) </p></div>
<p>The Tang dynasty far surpassed every other in almost all fields, including culture, economy, agriculture and transportation. Music, the art of dance, calligraphy, painting, visual arts, architecture, metal processing, ceramic manufacturing, textile design, printing, brewery, tea culture… everything in the Tang Dynasty had reached a pinnacle and gained such diversity that later periods could only be reflections. All of this was owed to a great emperor: Taizong, the sovereign ancestor.</p>
<p>He ruled from 626 until 649, and was one of the most excellent emperors in China’s long history; until this day he is being honored for his erudition and statesmanship. Skilled in the classics of Confucius teachings and an excellent scholar and master of calligraphy, he appointed able ministers, kept close relationships with his advisors, took heed to criticisms, and lived a frugal life. His governance was deemed the Confucian ideal. Through his noble character and clear intellect, China occupied the position of a dominant world power.</p>
<p>While other nations suffered from chaos, division and corruption, the people who lived under the governance of Taizong lived in harmony and prosperity. The good reputation of the Tang Dynasty even reached overseas, so that almost all countries in the world heard about it. Later the word “Tang” became a synonym for China. Even today, overseas Chinese call themselves “Tang-people” and a Chinese neighborhood is called “City of the Tang-people.” The Chinese simply can not forget their pride for this prosperous time.</p>
<p>Openness to the world was also an important aspect of this period. Buddhism spread far and wide, many pilgrimages to India took place, and numerous sutras were translated into Chinese. While the religion became extinct in India, it flourished in China. Confucianism and Taoism were also extensively practiced, and numerous foreigners also lived in China during this remarkable dynasty.</p>

<description><![CDATA[Để website tăng số lượng truy cập Để website tăng truy cập làm thế nào để website tăng lượng nếu điề]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><h2><a href="http://www.vinadesign.vn/web-master-quang-ba-web/16-quang-ba-web/360-de-website-tang-so-luong-tri-cap.html">Để website tăng số lượng truy cập<br />
</a></h2>
<p align="justify"><img style="margin-right:10px;" title="Để website tăng số lượng truy cập" src="http://www.vinadesign.vn/images/stories/hinh-anh/up-website-traffic.jpg" alt="Để website tăng số lượng truy cập" width="300" height="255" align="left" />Để website tăng truy cập làm thế nào để website tăng lượng nếu điều hành website dù mới xây dựng hay đã hoạt động nhiều năm thì yếu tố tiên quyết để trang nhà của bạn thành công là phải hiện diện trên máy tìm kiếm.</p>
<div>Theo thống kê, trung bình 61% lượt truy cập vào một trang Web là từ kết quả dẫn đường của máy tìm kiếm, trong đó Google chiếm tới 41% lưu lượng. Chính vì vậy, các công ty không ngừng đầu tư để dưa website của họ vào vị trí xếp hạng cao nhất có thể trong trang kết quả tìm kiếm và làm hình thành lên ngành tối ưu hóa máy tìm kiếm (SEO) trị giá nhiều tỷ USD.</div>
<div>Tuy nhiên không có thủ thuật nào cụ thể để trang web có vị trí cao nhất trang kết quả tìm kiếm chính xác mà chỉ có kinh nghiệm thành thạo mới tìm giải pháp. Những kỹ thuật và phương pháp cơ bản sau đây sẽ giúp cho những ai mới làm quen với sân chơi SEO nắm được quy trình xử lý website trên máy tìm kiếm.</div>
<p><strong>Tối ưu hóa từ khóa</strong></p>
<div>Máy tìm kiếm sẽ không hiệu quả nếu bạn không xác định được cái gì cần tối ưu. Một số doanh nghiệp lựa chọn từ khóa thích hợp với ngành nghề kinh doanh nhưng điều đó lại trở nên khó khăn hơn với các siêu thị online với hàng ngàn chủng loại hàng hóa cung cấp khác nhau. Vì làm thế nào để tạo ra thuật ngữ tìm kiếm một cách cô đọng và hấp dẫn cho website.</div>
<div>Trước hết, bạn nên lựa chọn những thuật ngữ có liên quan đến ngành kinh doanh của mình nhưng cũng đồng thời được nhiều người sử dụng thường xuyên nhất trên máy tìm kiếm. Cách nhanh nhất là bạn sử dụng công cụ thiết kế từ khóa sẵn có của máy tìm kiếm để xác định thuật ngữ hữu dụng. Công cụ Google Keyword Tool và SEO Book Keyword Suggestion Tool đều có thể đưa ra những thuật ngữ liên quan giúp bạn hoàn thành công việc một cách nhanh chóng và chính xác.</div>
<div>Sử dụng các thuật ngữ tối ưu sẽ giúp cho máy tìm kiếm đưa đến cho website nhiều người truy cập và ngược lại dùng từ khóa mà không mấy ai nhập vào máy tìm kiếm thì đương nhiên sẽ ít người biết đến trang nhà của bạn. Vì vậy hãy thận trọng lựa chọn từ khóa tối ưu để thu hút được nhiều người quan tâm nhất.</div>
<p><strong>Đánh dấu tiêu đề và địa chỉ từng trang web</strong></p>
<div>Các chuyên gia thừa nhận việc đánh dấu tiêu đề mới là yếu tố cốt lõi SEO. Khi đặt chỉ số nội dung, máy tìm kiếm thường xử lý các từ xuất hiện trên thanh tiêu đề trình duyệt và coi đó là yếu tố quan trọng trên mỗi trang web. Vì vậy, bạn nên gắn thẻ tiêu đề cho trang web bằng từ khóa độc đáo. Giống như việc đặt tên cho cuốn sách thật hấp dẫn để các khách hàng tiềm năng chú ý tìm đến.</div>
<p align="justify">Trước đây nhiều người cho rằng cấu trúc URL không quan trọng mà chỉ có nội dung trên trang mới thực sự cần thiết. Tuy nhiên, máy tìm kiếm có cơ chế tham chiếu những từ khóa ngay tại địa chỉ, thậm chí là cả từ khóa ở mỗi trang con. Để theo kịp kỹ thuật này, nhiều tờ báo từng sử dụng hệ thống đặt tiêu đề bằng chữ số nay chuyển sang đặt địa chỉ bằng chính tiêu đề bài viết.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><img src="http://killerdelicious.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/velveeta1.jpg" alt="velveeta" title="velveeta" width="123" height="105" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-217" />I know there are much more pressing issues to spend my energy thinking about, but over the years I have put a good deal of thought into a couple of different food products that never cease to puzzle me&#8230;and they just happen to both be orange.  Velveeta and Tang.</p>
<p><img src="http://killerdelicious.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/tang-23.jpg" alt="tang 2" title="tang 2" width="125" height="89" class="alignright size-full wp-image-228" /></p>
<p>What the hell is velveeta anyway?  Is it an actual food product, a petroleum bi-product from industrial production or some other form of matter yet to be classified?  It&#8217;s list of ingredients includes cheese, but I don&#8217;t think this product behaves much like real cheese&#8230;at least it doesn&#8217;t trigger my lactose intollerance and send me running to the bathroom doubled over with cramps, although by all measures it absolultely should.  Velveeta was a staple in our house growing up.  My mother built our entire collection of Legos by clipping the coupons from velveeta packages and sending them in for free Legos.  Thanks to velveeta, stray legos were all over our house and, despite the daily pain and suffering from stepping on the sharp little buggers, my mother continued to feed us velveeta and get us free legos.  But the mental image I have of my parents eating a sandwich adorned with a thick slice of velveeta causes a gag reflex so powerful in me that I can scarcely write this blog without losing my breakfast.  Still, nothing quite melts like velveeta and there are certain recipes from Mom that are just not the same when prepared with real cheese.  Velveeta and rotel queso dip is an easy and popular addition to any party spread.  And a grilled velveeta sandwich with sliced tomatoes takes me back to lazy summer afternoons of my childhood, when the cares of adult life seemed so remote and meaningless. Some food products just transport you and for me, velveeta is a time machine.  </p>
<p>So, what exactly is velveeta?  How would you classify this product?  Is it an actual food product that might play a starring role on your dinner table?  Would you place a block of velveeta on a cheese platter?  Or is it a condiment, only to be mixed with other things?  And why does it have to be that almost neon orange color?  </p>
<p>Tang is another neon orange item that wisks me right back to the 70&#8217;s.  In 1969 when Appolo 11 made its historic moon landing, we were poised in front of the TV with huge glasses of tang.  My brother and I were 7 years old and we totally bought into the Tang marketing concept that it was the drink of astronauts.  I imaged these guys bounding through the Sea of Tranquility with big glasses of ice cold tang.  We drank tang every single day.  My mother mixed it with instant iced tea, another flavor combo that causes an immeidate gag reflex.  I have not seen tang on the grocery store shelf in my adult life.  Is this pioneer of the powdered drink movement still available?  And more importantly, was I just a naive idealist to think that astronauts really drank this orange sugar-water?  </p>
<p>Food triggers strong and vivid emotional memories for all of us, that is certain.  I&#8217;m sure there must be some food product you might be embarrassed to admit sits in your pantry or fridge right now, just for the memories it conjures.  Am I right?  I am, aren&#8217;t I?  </p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><font size="4" face="Verdana">Kraft Foods, What Are You Doing?</font><font size="2" face="Verdana"><br />
Okay, doesn&#8217;t the whole world know that sugar is bad for us, and that as a whole, we&#8217;re all trying to cut back on it? I mean, after all, don&#8217;t we all know that <strong>Being Overweight + Consuming too much Sugar = DIABETES?</strong></p>
<p>I switched from drinking diet pop to drinking TANG orange flavored beverage about a year ago. While the diet pops were both caffeine free and sugar free, they still had artificial sweeteners which I consider worse than small doses of sugar. So good bye pops, hello TANG.</p>
<p><img alt="" src="http://i880.photobucket.com/albums/ac2/kayakerles/TANG-old-and-new-stacked.jpg" title="TANG bottles old and new" class="alignright" width="211" height="319" />I went to the store the other day and noticed that the container the TANG comes in had grown considerably. It&#8217;s now 20 oz instead of 12.3 oz. But guess what? The smaller container made 8 quarts of TANG, and the larger container only makes six quarts. A much larger container, and the mix makes 2 quarts less! I haven&#8217;t even checked the price difference of the two, but let me venture a guess&#8230; the larger one, (which makes two less quarts) is going to cost less. Here&#8217;s a picture of the old bottle of TANG on top of the new container. We know which one looks bigger, too bad it doesn&#8217;t contain as much. </p>
<p>But wait, there&#8217;s more. This article isn&#8217;t even about the size of the container, how much it contains, or even about about how much it costs. This article is about a product we&#8217;re used to more than <em>doubling</em> in it&#8217;s sugar content. <em>Doubling!</em><strong></p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the ingredients label:</p>
<p><img alt="" src="http://i880.photobucket.com/albums/ac2/kayakerles/TANG-old-ingredients3.jpg" title="TANG old ingredients" class="alignnone" width="214" height="214" /><img alt="" src="http://i880.photobucket.com/albums/ac2/kayakerles/spacer.jpg" title="spacer" class="alignnone" width="15" height="214" /><img alt="" src="http://i880.photobucket.com/albums/ac2/kayakerles/TANG-new-ingredients3.jpg" title="TANG new ingredients" class="alignnone" width="250" height="214" /></p>
<p>Okay. One good thing is they took out three artificial sweeteners: surcalose, acesulfame potassium and neotame. But the bad thing is they have more than DOUBLED the amount of sugar in a glass. They added a small amount of salt as well, but not enough to make a difference in anyone&#8217;s diets. But look at the difference in sugar:</p>
<p><img alt="" src="http://i880.photobucket.com/albums/ac2/kayakerles/TANG-old-nutrition5.jpg" title="TANG old nutrition" class="alignnone" width="161" height="214" />  <img alt="" src="http://i880.photobucket.com/albums/ac2/kayakerles/spacer.jpg" title="spacer" class="alignnone" width="15" height="214" /><img alt="" src="http://i880.photobucket.com/albums/ac2/kayakerles/TANG-new-nutrition5.jpg" title="new nutrit5" class="alignnone" width="240" height="214" /></p>
<p>Notice that the carbs went right up with the sugar, from 9 grams to 22 grams. They used to have a claim that caught a lot of people&#8217;s eyes that were watching their sugar, it was this, promptly displayed on the cap of the container. Now it&#8217;s just a &#8220;great new taste.&#8221;</p>

<p>Pay a decent price for a product, Kraft calls it a &#8220;Sensible Solution.&#8221; Raise the price with the product making less beverage than before, even Kraft knows that&#8217;s no longer a sensible solution!</p>
<p><img alt="" src="http://i880.photobucket.com/albums/ac2/kayakerles/TANG-old-8qts.jpg" title="Old TANT 8 qts" class="alignnone" width="214" height="214" />  <img alt="" src="http://i880.photobucket.com/albums/ac2/kayakerles/spacer.jpg" title="spacer" class="alignnone" width="15" height="214" /><img alt="" src="http://i880.photobucket.com/albums/ac2/kayakerles/TANG-new-6qts.jpg" title="New TANG 6 qts" class="alignnone" width="240" height="214" /></p>
<p>One last thing&#8230; what about vitamins? With their old mixture, they were proud to boast of something they called &#8220;Fruition,&#8221; a combination of 4 different vitamins along with calcium. With the new mixture it&#8217;s bye bye vitamin A, B6, B2 and B3. Only vitamin C and Calcium remain.</p>
<p><img alt="" src="http://i880.photobucket.com/albums/ac2/kayakerles/Frutrition.jpg" title="Fruition" class="alignnone" width="214" height="214" />  <img alt="" src="http://i880.photobucket.com/albums/ac2/kayakerles/spacer.jpg" title="spacer" class="alignnone" width="15" height="214" /><img alt="" src="http://i880.photobucket.com/albums/ac2/kayakerles/Frutrition-no-more.jpg" title="Fruition no more" class="alignnone" width="214" height="214" /></p>
<p>Now THAT&#8217;s what I call a product makeover. To who&#8217;s benefit is this? This topic will remain open to comment for one week, and then I&#8217;ll send it along with all comments to Kraft Foods. Are you okay with these changes?</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:justify;">While on a business trip in Mexico I became thirsty. Not wanting to drink the water from the tap, I took a stroll to the corner market for some bottled water. The meeting was only dismissed for a short time so I didn&#8217;t have time for a trip back to my hotel.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">I came across some drink mix that I had never seen before but I grew up with it all my life. It was a normal breakfast drink for us kids. It was Tang. I drank it, Terri drank it and even astronauts had drank it. The difference is it wasn&#8217;t the orange Tang that I knew and loved. It was Passion fruit flavored I believe.</p>
<p><a href="http://morningerection.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/mango-tang.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-179" title="mango tang" src="http://morningerection.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/mango-tang.jpg" alt="mango tang" width="400" height="300" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">I grabbed all that they had on the shelf. It was good tasting. Before I left I found two more flavors and bought them as well. I mailed them back home to myself and shared with all who would partake. It turns out that there are many brands that American companies change to please the palate of different lands. I couldn&#8217;t find too many examples but what I did find is below. Japan is a country with an eclectic taste and the products companies make for them prove it. Any make you hungry?</p>
<p>Doritos</p>
