Reviews
Pros: Energy
Cons: Expensive
Recommendation: These really pack an energy wallup. Tough to chew, but very satisfying even in small doses. Like some have mentioned, these are hard to consume while on the go.

Pros: Taste good.
Longer lasting energy than gels.
Feel like you're eating something.
Easy to digest.
Cons: Hard to eat while riding.
Recommendation: I carry these on longer rides in addition to gels. At high altitude, I usually don't feel like eating 'real' food, but these provide good energy and something to chew on when I take a longer break and get off the bike.
They don't have the immediate kick of energy gels, but they tend to last longer in your system too.
