Does anyone have experience eating those gel energy packs while backpacking? My wife was bicycle shopping this weekend and I noticed that the cycle shops sell them. There was a big rally the next day and I noticed 2 different presumed cyclists come in and purchase full boxes. I asked the salesman that was helping my wife about them and he said he uses them and that he finds they work well. I don't like stopping to cook a hot meal for lunch so often feel malnourished eating just snacks like nuts and fruit during the day. These packets seem light enough and I was thinking they might be good supplements on tough or long hikes, but I'm weary they are nothing more than caffeine packets.
Any testimonials?
