Thanks to our teachers...there just HAD to be one more thing I needed to learn.
Really, 'Kevin'? Chalk WITHOUT hot sauce?!
...maybe a little 'flavor enhancement' would help?

So where is the alka & where is the seltzer in a fruit chew?
That's like Pepto Bismal potato chips or something. |

Nice point. The obvious never hit me - no plop, no fizz, just relief.

Are Tums that horrible? Is Kevin such a 7 y/o that he needs fruity chewy antacid? Maybe so. I see there's another commercial that advertises the equivalent of chewy Flintstone vitamins for adults---I guess because taking actual adult-style vitamins is too much to expect from doofuses like Kevin.

It's o.k. Thor - the market is now pandering to our children and those young enough to be our grandchildren, the 'new adults' - 'Generation Haribo'.

Yeah, back in the day the remedy for heartburn was to whack your thumb with a hammer. That took your mind off your indigestion pretty quick.
Sam's Club chalk antacids all day long. Taste better'n Tumms, and about 1/6 the cost.

Come up with an antacid pizza or cheeseburger & you've got my attention.
Or maybe antacid chocolate ice cream. Come up with those & I'm all in. |

The latest thing I've hear about treating heartburn & acid reflux is to put some of that nasal saline solution in your nostrils & let it drain back into your throat. Saw Dr. Oz talking about it & my mom who's suffered from it said it really works. So I tried it & damned if it didn't!!! |

^^^That's interesting but makes me wonder if drinking a little salt water would achieve the same thing.

The best I've had were these lemon-creme ones that came in a roll---either Mylanta or Maalox. I dunno if they still make 'em, though. This was like 20 years ago.
