all the favourites work for me. i think it's largely the psychological effect of eating something when you feel like you could do with a boost. that and instant hit of sugar and salt.
any combination of the following: malt loaf - sliced with butter and jam on a longer ride. bananas, flapjack, coffee, sweets, energy gel, electrolyte powerade
basically it's all good. i'm of the anti xander philosophy, although i prefer to carry a little for back up and buy en route for convenience
