Sticky electrolyte replacement? Pterodactyl Poop?

I was at a practice tri last weekend. One of the women had what looked like a thick sticky graham cracker stuck to the tube on her bike. Being a little overachiever, she had already set up T1 on was gone. A colleague said she always uses this as there's no wrapper, it lasts a while and works better than gel or goo.

What is it? It looks like pterodactyl poop.

sounds strange.

I just use a gu-flask that is velcro'd to a holder on the top tube of my bike.

some people stick power bars to their TT.
I dont think I'd want to eat anything that's been sticking to my TT for a while.

It WAS pretty strange looking. It looked like a Soviet era power bar, if it was that.
