Making calcium acetate from Tums

Hey guys, today we are making some calcium acetate from TUMS. In a previous video I said i would get to this eventually...but I decided to do it right away.

I should add, the reason I didn't just try to wash away the sugar with water is because it forms an insanely terrible suspension that is a pain to deal with or filter off.
