OK, here's the problem.

I'm at the point now that I'm going to have to start seriously thinking of nutrition as I ride. I can't force myself to eat bananas {{shudder}} and I don't trust Gatoraide with all its high-fructose corn syrup and neon colors. Just call me an old Hippy Chick and be done with it, but I really don't want those in my body.

So... now what? I know I need potassium and fuel, mostly. So far diluted orange juice has been the beverage of choice with crunchy granola bars and Paydays as solids.

Does anyone have any other ideas?

Oh yeah, I need to be able to pick this up at Kwik-Shop type stores, I am going on a longish ride soon, you know.

And yes, I know I'm impossible. It's part of my charm.
