> 3 dayMy husband and I used these when we cycle. Its delicious and definitely helps with a boost of energy and to prevent a charlie horse. We prefer this flavor over all the others. We feel the others are too sweet.

> 3 dayI am not a big fan of the taste, but then I dont really like any sports drinks or gels - too sweet. I can get them down though, and we took these on a recent backpacking trip where they were awesome. I tend to not feel hungry when I am working hard and so while everyone else seemed happy to tuck into a big lunch when we are hiking all day, I feel like I can barely choke something down. These things were great for a little midday energy boost when I didnt feel like eating much. Ive also liked them for a quick bump of energy when we are out on a long bike ride. I found they go down best with lots of water, which is a bonus as it reminds me to hydrate. Overall, from someone who isnt a fan of these types of products, I really like them and will definitely buy again.

Greater than one weekI’m a fan of GUs to begin with and love them for my longer bike rides, but this has to be the best flavor ever!!! They’re like eating a melty GS cookie! What a treat! Love love love them!

> 3 dayMy new favorite flavor of GU!! It used to be Mocha.... now it is definitely Caramel Macchiato. It tastes just like a sweet shot of coffee. I am a triathlete and use these during workouts and races. I consume one within the first 30 minutes of biking (after the swim). If its an half Ironman race, Ill consume two during the bike leg. I have yet to attempt slurping one down during the run (fear of choking, I guess?), but I know many who do with success. :) Again.... Caramel Macchiato.... YUM!

> 3 dayI burned out on Gu a long time ago and for years avoided it. When I tried the French Toast Gu it reignited my love (and use) of gu. The flavor is unique (not all fruity or vanilla or chocolate) but not heavy. It has a yummy, buttery maple syrup flavor that isnt too sweet. Right now I alternate between French Toast gu and Toasted Smore GU and I actually look forward to taking nutrition during runs now. Perfect for long runs (pre or during nutrition).
