An alternative that could provide the sodium and potassium: boiled potatoes with some parmesan as a ride snack... see Allen Lim's "recipe":

A friend in a group ride brought some to distribute during a ride. It was a fun treat during our ride. I would add a bit of salt.
His various recipes for rice cakes are great, too. Here is one:

I tried one that had mixed scrambled eggs, some nut butter (almond, in my case), cashews and bacon. Yum. Had one during a 58 miles ride and I was not hungry for hours after it! I will make those again, but using chopped prosciutto instead of bacon (no frying required).
I tried endurolytes once and my stomach felt crampy for several miles.
