What to eat while riding?

+1000 for bananas

I havent seen a post like this, so I dared open this thread to the multitudes of opinions of fellow roadies.

 

As a general rule I struggle to eat anything while exercising. Its like the pathway between mouth and stomach is closed for the duration of the activity. But, riding for two, three or four hours forces you to recharge dem glutecose in dem muscles.

 

So after trying snacks and various bars and failing to find something I can eat (and stomach) while riding that doesnt make me nausious or cause a build up of phlem, I appeal to my fellow hubbers. What works for you?

 

Try Enduren Energy Bars - all natural ingredients, easy to eat and digest and nice tasting - not to sweet.

That is the truth, I have a problem with Banana's though, about 2hrs into the ride it's warm and too slimy, so I had this very bright idea of wrapping some banana bread and taking that along.. yeah, it turned out not be be a great idea.. will be returning to the gag while chomping banana.

The slipperiness is exactly what makes banana go down so easily without water! It also packs great energy and electrolytes.
