In an attempt to save some money, I decided to try these instead of the Tums I normally buy. I got the peppermint flavor that I prefer. The taste wasn't that bad but the texture was really powdery. I was able to finish the whole bottle, but I will not buy them again and have not bought them again. I would not recommend these really. I mean they are OK, but I would rather spend the extra 50 cents.

Texture is too powdery.
