I'd rather eat actual food. Or at least something that's somewhat close to food.

FRS ( free radical scavenger) a sports/electrolyte/all natural energy drink in powder form also makes a chewable candy very similar in texture to starburst candies. I love them and the FRS powder- that's all I generally use although I do keep two gu packets in case of emergency and if I have to use them, I swallow the thing in one big gulp just to get past the texture.

I'm one of those people who can't do real food, at least not in summer. I'll keep that suggestion of peanut M&Ms in mind for October, though.
At least I don't leave slime trails.

I had difficulty making myself even drink all my HEED during my first and so far only tri. Real food isn't an option for most people at their lactate threshold, I don't think.
