I like Sharkies. Most gels creep me out and I really try to only use them in emergencies. Sharkies are kind of like less-sweet gummy bears and they don't upset my stomach at all. I also like that they can take heat. When I would ride in the southern summers - that was a critical requirement.

My favorite feature is that they are small and you can eat just a few....you don't have to eat the whole pack at once. I used to like the Cliff shot blocks for this reason as well, but the shot blocks are almost too big for me and therefore are borderline 'gag-a-licious' as well.

I also like the Sharkie flavors better than the Luna Moons (though texture is the same).
