Pecan pie always seemed like a good source of energy too, but it would be near impossible to carry and eat it while riding. It's too bad..I love pecan pie.
What other strange/interesting things do you eat that gives you energy on the bike?
My friend and I always are looking for the cheapest calories/$. I've packed some funny stuff on a ride to show him. Speaking of pecan pie my most recent purchase from Bartell's was a single serving pecan pie for 69 cents. It has 340 calories and measures 3.5" X 1.25". Has it's own pie tin and is plastic wrapped. Fits right on a jersey pocket. It's made by the Moon Pie people.
