Description
Sustain Your Performance Sweet Spot
The Energy Chews Sport Fuel(Box of 10) from Skratch Labs help maintain blood sugar for sustained performance. These energy chews are flavored with real fruit for a clean taste and non-waxy texture. Tapioca and cane sugar are the primary sources of fuel, inducing quicker absorption than a single fuel source would. The chews' fruit drop shape promotes a sustained "slow drip" delivery of fuel for long lasting energy.
For optimal results, Skratch Labs recommends one serving of Energy Chews each hour for activities lasting longer than 2 hours, beginning the first hour. If you're going super hard and super long, you may even try up to 2 servings per hour.

- Box net weight: 17.60z (500g).
- 10 chews per individual pack.

Reviews
These taste good and deliver but are sticky and therefore difficult to eat while riding and gunk up your fingers too. The packaging doesn't lend it self to accessing and eating while riding either. Best to just eat these before a ride and/or while stopped.
These energy chews have great taste/selection of flavors and sit very well with me on long rides. The only downside, and it's minor, the packaging is hard to open while riding......
I have used Scratch Labs products for years, especially since I got back into cycling. Even as a diabetic, I need to have their chews available, as well as, gels, and other sources of energy nutrition. I also am a big user of their hydration products for both the sodium/potassium and carb mix. The combination of all these are necessary to sustain a two hour plus effort in the saddle, especially when coupled with high intensity interval training. You can rely on these sources to fuel your ride, whether hard or easy!
I bought these as a fuel source while running long distance. I wanted something easy to carry and easier to chew while running. These are fairly soft and dissolve pretty quickly in your mouth. I guess they would work on the bike but given it is easier to ride and eat, not sure I would go with these given the price, but I did use these some on my last century ride.
These chews taste really good, and are easy to chew and swallow. Unfortunately, they're not convenient to eat on a bike; once you open the packet enough to reach in, they're liable to fall out (either in your pocket or on the road), they don't simply roll out when you shake the packet. You have to kinda dig in with your fingers to get one, and then after you eat it, there's sticky granulated sugar left on your fingers, which is kinda delicious, but when I'm riding, my fingers are usually kinda gross.
Clif Bloks don't taste quite as good, and require a bit more chewing, but you can eat them one-handed without too much work.
I've tried tons of different energy chews over the years and my default is typically Clif Shot Bloks that I buy locally and individually, but in the last year they've become hard to get, so I thought I'd try these in a bulk box buy, in several flavors. They work well for providing energy and you get more of them for the money than the Shot Bloks. They're easier to chew as well and don't get stuck to your teeth like Shot Bloks and some others. About the only downside over Shot Bloks is these aren't linear in the package, so you have to fish around to get them out and in your mouth.
It's a small package (easy to carry in a jersey pocket) and by recommended serving size only two serving, but you don't have to use that many at a time to get a boost. They serve their purpose and they don't stick to your teeth like many gummies. And they taste great and come in a variety of flavors.
