So what is the dealio with fro-tang?\nIt's a question that keeps me up at night, pondering...pondering.\nI needed an answer, so when I got out of the office and went for a walkabout in Old Town for lunch a couple of days ago, my route took me past the fro-tang palace in Old Town, Ice Tango!\nI thought (as I made my fateful decision to walk in) \"frozen yogurt...how difficult can this be?\"\nPlenty difficult, as it turns out!\nI was greeted by the guy who lost on American Idol (apparently, maybe a dead ringer), as I walked in. \nHe pointed to the 10 rows of soft serve machines and said \"you can try any flavors you want\" and indicated a stack of exquisitely tiny paper thimbles, in which I was supposed to put a small serving of fro-tang to try out.\nI had no idea what the fro-tang was going to taste like, so thought \"good idea\"...I could not have been more wrong.\nI approached the first soft serve udder, with a label that said something like \"creamy tang-fro\" and gave it a short pull.\n2 1/2 cups of creamy tang-fro cascaded over the sides of my thimble and onto my hands (desperately cupped to keep the yo-tang from hitting the floor and marking me as a non-pro tang-fro jockey).\nI didn't really get a taste as I dumped the thimble and the extra 2 lb's. of yo-fro in the trash bin.\nWhile unsuccessfully trying to clean my sticky hands with a wad of napkins, I decided on another approach.\nI walked by the 30 different soft serve machines looking at lables in a hopeless attempt to find my standby...vanilla...no go for vanilla fro-yo.\nI did find some sort of chocolate blend, but it was in one of the 6 or so soft serve udders that were not in working order (swirling, cold, but the udders just wouldn't  give:)\nI finally settled on Mangy Tango (or was it Tangy Mango?) and Coconut Something combo.\nI got a small cup and by now well aware of the awesome dispensing capabilities of these hard core soft servers, I pulled the lever on the combo udder for 1 second...1 second!\nMy little cup was only 1/3 full:) Just right! \nI added a spoonful of strawberries to the concoction and took my prize to the counter to pay for it.\nAdam (probably not his real name) motioned that I should set my tangy treat on the scale...he was going to weigh it and I was going to pay $.38 per ounce for my sweet confection:) \nGood Deal! I didn't have that many oz's:)\n$4.27? \nAdam, do you want to weigh that again? \nAre you kidding? \nWho do you guys think you are...Sprinkles?\nI asked Adam how they hide the ballast in the cups. \nAdam looks at me like I'm not all that funny...but I am:)\nI would tell you that I have never had better fro-yo-tang, but I had never had any of the stuff before.\nThe Mangy Tango part was OK, but the Oil-Can Coconut had a chemical taste and I tossed about $3.49 worth of tang-yo into the trash(:\nSo, no bro, on the fro yo from the tango.
