GU Energy Original Sports Nutrition Energy Gel, 24-Count, Salted Caramel

In my opinion, this is THE BEST tasting power gel on the market. GU has really hit a homerun with this one. A lot of their fruit flavors are pretty disgusting, and the Espresso is kind of grainy. This salted caramel literally tastes like youre eating straight-up caramel from the sundae bar!! My wife and I run 25-30 miles a week with long runs every week, and weve come to appreciate these quick fuel sources. She generally hates these types of gels, but this is the one flavor and brand that she will actually use. Plus, the added caffeine really helps provide some energy for those last few miles on a long run.

Taste great and supplies the fuel

Easy to use. Like the flavor.

Absolutely love the taste of these. Have been through two boxes of these already this summer and need another box. I think I will go and order them right now! They are essential for hot summer rides, easy to eat and digest and the salt is necessary (for me, anyway). Sometimes when youre riding a long time/distance and youre hot, the thought of eating anything, never mind a Gu which can be disgusting, is not worth thinking about. But these taste so good I have never felt like that ... definitely recommend if you like the taste of salted caramel anything.

If you have an emergency leg cramp in the middle of long ride, this stuff literally makes it go away within a minute. I like to take these on long 4-6 hr rides for a sustained energy boost.

Like flavor and makes you feel confort while running

Been using clif shots and thought Id try these out as they seem like they might have a better balance of items. The Gu tastes odd, definitely not of vanilla. Might try another type, but Clif have all tasted better.

Most of the other flavors of GU are just ok in my opinion. This one hits the spot. Great flavor and easily swallowed.

Have been using these for years prior to a run; great boost of energy! Need some water to flush it down though as it is a bit thick. I prefer the vanilla flavor and also the chocolate but that is even thicker. No after taste at all.

These are hands down the best trail chowder I have ever consumed! I have been an avid mountain biker since 1990 and have eaten uncountable quantities of nasty sawdust bars, puke flavored bars (see Pro Bar), lumpy gag inducing goo packs, fruity heartburn slime and other varying grotesquiries. These are actually so yummy I crave them when I am not bonking on my bike... Thank you Gu, you have finally made something so tremendously tasty that I actually look forward to trail food time.
