At a South Broadway plant in St. Louis, 99.9 percent of the global supply of Tums is produced, where the familiar antacid has been produced for 80 years. Billions of the tablets have rolled off the lines at the five-story plant across from Busch Stadium, and this month marks the company’s 80th anniversary. Officials said the basic formula is the same as it was at the beginning, and it is the Number 1 selling antacid in the U.S. The St. Louis plant manufactured 4.7 billion Tums tablets in 24 flavors in 2009.
