Power bar gel Blasts

[JennyPi]

I love Margarita, Orange, and Cola shot blocks. They do it for me.

I'm not a gel gal, but I finally found a gel (singular) that I do like. It's a GU ... flavor is called Espresso Love. It's the only one I'll eat. At first the taste definitely seemed unusual, but then I took a liking to it. I guess it's so wrong, it's right! Can't go wrong with the vitamins and caffeine.

I'll pass on the "Gusher" Powerbar Gel Blasts info to the BF. We'll probably pick some up this weekend for Bicycle Sunday and try them out.

I checked out the link. This really cracked me up:


# No artificial flavors, color or preservatives
# Available in Natural Lemon and Cola flavors


so what's natural Cola flavoring?

I love luna moons...but I want to try those now!

Thanks for the review!

Has anyone tried the cliff gels? I had a couple on a century this weekend,and I felt like they had a really strange after taste! Maybe it was just the heat...July in southern georgia...everything has an aftertaste!

I like the Luna Moons and Sharkies, they are like gummie bears and hold up well in the back pocket all day long. Clif Shot Blocks are good too but they tend to get gooier the longer they are in the back jersey..but still do-able.

So what's a gal to try if she can't stand things with the consistency of gummy bears, jelly beans, or gum drops?

My H hates all 'gummy' things, too. He sticks to gels in chocolate or vanilla flavor and tries to convince himself that he's eating frosting!

Fig Newtons
P&J sandwich on wheat bread cut into quarters
banana or apple
dried apricots and nuts
Trail mix
a cookie
pretzels
and a thousand other things....

Personally, I can't see buying incredibly expensive artificial goo gel packaged in wasteful one-use foil or plastic wrapping. Something wrong with real food? (just my humble opinion)

Mimi-
when they say "natural lemon and cola flavors", that doesn't mean "natural lemon and natural cola flavors". It means "natural lemon" flavor and "cola" flavor.
I used to be in the food business and I know some of the labeling tricks.

I'm kinda partial to Jelly Belly Energizer Beans, but if I don't have those I'm also a big fan of dried fruit, raisins, cherries, berries.
