Clif products seem to be blissful for my tummy and keep my energy and blood sugar on an even keel. (I have "issues" with low blood sugar, and it can get pretty ugly.)
On a good ride I try to eat 3 Clif blocks every half hour and sip regular-strength Clif Electrolyte every 10 minutes or so. (more if I'm thirsty or feel shakey)
At a rest stop, I try to eat a banana, apple, almonds, cheese, or Lara bar.

As far as drinking diluted sports drinks, you might find that doesn't give you the carbos you need.
