I guess that's what happens when a good company gets bought out by the corporation that makes Cadbury candies.
I just bought out the last of their mocha flavor from
Clif Bar website.
Got any recommendations for other decent gels?
I've been using Bolt by Pro Bar, easy on the stomach.
While not a gel, if you have a Fresh Market in your area, they have these things they call Power Chews. Basically rice cake type of things, but in a much smaller cube. Almonds, Brown rice, Honey Cranberries, some other stuff. They are fantastic and I take them in a small baggie, 10 or 12 of them and eat them on the long rides. I figure they are about 40 cal per cube, so If I eat 3 or so an hour along with my mix in my bottles, I am good for the rides with an an occasional gel block. I used to make my own, but these are very tasty and very convenient. There are where you can get nuts and seeds
