Um, obviously I shop for myself when touring - in addition to regular daily stuff. And of course I have heard of KoolAid.
The malodextrose, HalfSalt and something else someone mentioned were what I was referring to. Not having blood pressure or diabetic problems, I've never looked at salt or sugar alternatives. Obviously, I am pretty comfortable with Gatorade and what it does for me - minus the exorbitant cost at convenience stores.
In any case, I am interested in what others do - carry/mix powder or spend money on bottled drinks?
