I have a couple of container garden boxes at my small condo in Florida. When I get there in the fall, I like to plant some cucumbers, tomatoes and peppers to have later in the winter. Previously, I had been having trouble with the tomatoes and peppers having large black spots on the bottom. I tracked it down to a fungus enabled by too acidic a soil. Last year, I bought a pack of "Tums", crushed them up, and spread them in he containers. It helped a lot, but was a messy and difficult process, as they had to be crushed and dissolved in water, which takes a while.
While searching for an alternative, I came upon this stuff. Not only is it easier to work with but it's also a lot cheaper. The only downside is that the powder is so fine that it can get messy if you are not careful. The first time I used it, I made kind of a mess. Since then, it's been fine.

High quality; exactly what I was looking for
I bought this in order to make my own toothpaste, and was very pleased. It arrived quickly in a convenient plastic container. The lid is secure and I don’t have to worry that the powder will spill accidentally. The powder is very fine, consistent and flavorless. It had no clumps, mixes well with other ingredients (shown in picture), and loosens easily with water. Because it is so fine, it does a great job of cleaning teeth gently and helping to prevent demineralization.
