Powerbar gel, SB and Tangerine(love that xtra caffeine)

A buddy of mine likes Gu Chocolate, but may switch to a differnt flavor. He got dehydrated during a race and was taken to the hospital. When his wife came to see him, she was helping him get comfortable and noticed a brown substance on his rear end. He had to inform her quickly that his Gu package had burst and it was not as it seemed.

I'm into the clif shot bloks at the moment. Just have to remember to hold the package in my hand for a few minutes before eating when it's cold out.

Any ideas on which gels are least likely to cause gastrointestinal problems? I have many GI issues?

Sorry for the hijack

IF you like frappaccinos Powerbar Double Latte I like to follow it up with Carb Booms Apple Cinnamon (apple pie really) Coffee and dessert my two favorite things I could workout forever.

GU is too thick. I like chocolate but only in the winter in the summer its gross.

Cliff Shot Blocks are awesome specifically strawberry and cran raz. But Cliff SHOTS are GROSS!! They taste like rotten fruit.

Powerbar because their most liquid and don't get stuck on my throat.
Carb Boom because they are damn tasty and made with natural fruit puree.
Hammer... yuck. However I love their Sustained Energy 343 calories per serving in liquid form and tastes like... NOTHING.
Stingers... I don't know kinda boring.
Accel Gels... strawberry kiwi and orange. Little protein nice and thin liquid.
