[QUOTE="NicoleC1971, post: 2119646, member: 365308"] Block of coconut (go to the 'ethnic' section of the supermarket). It is delicious and filling and you keep it in the fridge but could chop off a chunk or 3 to take with you. I love making my own almond butter which I can then easily eat on the run (bake whole almonds for 10 minutes, blitz with a little coconut oil in a food processor for a while - noisy but it works eventually). OR just buy some (Pip n Squeak did do some sachets for easy transportation in your bike bag). I also add in cocoa powder and desiccated coconut. I am sure you could get away with dark chocolate chunks or eating it with a banana or sliced apple as the fat slows down the rise in blood glucose caused by the fruit or chocolate. Am type 1 so would only go for dried fruit if my blood sugar was dropping or I really wanted some after a long cycle ride, having depleted my muscles first! BTw have you guys come across this? Probably worthy of its' own post I think.... [IMG]https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/shopping?q=tbn:ANd9GcSfkK1ls6C4GVpEH5Bdl1pP8AdifMFWW1bfu4CBFaau0xW3AFlq3g&usqp=CAc[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
