CLIF Organic Energy Food, $2.29-$2.99
Endurance athletes consume a great deal of gels, bars, blocks and chews and need constant energy to keep up for the duration of any race. CLIF Organic Energy Food is the next generation of sports nutrition made from real food ingredients crafted for endurance athletes who want energy and essential nutrients for long-duration activities. Sweet recipes are made for activities of one hour or more, while savory recipes have crave-worthy flavors with small amounts of protein and fat that make them better suited for activities lasting two hours or longer.

Flavors include Banana Beet with Ginger, Banana Mango with Coconut, Sweet Potato with Sea Salt and Pizza Margherita. Flavors were inspired by home recipes of Team CLIF Bar athletes.
