Subject: sharkies anyone?

does anyone use or have tried these? it looks like the only difference between them and cliff blocs is the brown rice syrup on cliff blocs.

i found them at target and craked into them on the way home..they taste the same. doens't seem as portable...but i'll try them tomarrow on my ride.

I've tried them and although I wasn't crazy about the citrus flavor, I did like that they're smaller than clif bloks. I like clif bloks but sometimes they're a mouthful to chew and they tend to stick together when it's too cold or hot. A friend of mine tried the kid's Sharkies and she really likes those.

I liked it. I think it's vegan, no? Not cheap though. Clif shot blok is not cheap either

I love them.  I can't buy cliff shots where I live and these are my only option (and are still an hour drive away).

 

Some of the flavours are lame, but the fruit and berry ones are great.

try the kids flavors...they are good too. In fact, Target by me has stopped carrying the adult ones and only have the kids, but they are still cheaper than cliff shots!

Yup, our Target has done the same thing.  I wonder why?  They were one of the few places that had 'em really cheap too.

I like them.  I use them sometimes, Clif shots other times, etc.  The kids flavors are better than the adults, especially the sour ones coated with sugar.

They are vegan.

I've used them several times and I definitely liked them. I had the citrus flavor and found it to be very similar to the clif blocks.

LUNA moons are awesome, too!  There are 6 in a pack and are easy to chew--not as mushy as clif shot blocks nor as big--and even if they are warm they aren't sticky.  3 great flavors--blueberry, watermelon and pomegranate--all taste good!  I don't just say this because I am on the LUNA team, I have been eating them before that happened!

Just started using sharkies this week, not too bad, easily chewed, bit of indigestion after a ride tonight, but might be other factors to that we will see.
If you live in ontario right now shopper's drug mart has sharkies on sale for buy 10 packs, pay $10, $1.00 a pack when you buy ten.
That is a pretty good price i think!

Ooooo I loooove sharkies!! I think my taste buds are slightly biased towards foods that look cooler though, thus preferring sharkies to Clif shots or anything else like that.

They should make foods like this in the shape of mathematical symbols / irrational numbers - or the cyrillic / hangul / 'add you own here' alphabet...

(I'm sorry that was wayy off topic...can you tell I'm a huge nerd? I've accepted it though its ok )

But yea sharkies rock!
