Unofficial Product Review....Honey Stinger Waffle

I am a HUGE fan of GU Chomps.... I love them, as in, I eat them for a snack in the middle of the day.... BUT I'm always looking to change my nutrition up when it comes to working out.  I need variety....I can't stay the same old course with chomps...I'm still trying to get used to the texture of gels so anything that I can taste test before I purchase, I do.

In Austin this weekend at the LiveStrong expo Honey Stinger had a booth.  Lance is part owner in the company and the spokesperson...

We passed by and they had out all of their typical samples, protein bars and gels.  But this wafer looking thing caught my eye.  Seriously...wouldn't you notice THAT?!?

I was intrigued...and hungry....so I tried it.  YUM-O!  This little round wafer of goodness is the Honey Stinger Waffle.It reminded me of a crispy pancake with honey syrup or perhaps a healthier sopapilla if you will.  (I think there is a hint of cinnamon in it) Either way it is DELICIOUS.  Something different from the gels, chomps, etc you are used to on the bike.  They fit nicely in the jersey pocket or in your bike's pouch/bento box.  They have also become my favorite breakfast treat.

I bought a handful in Austin at Mellow Johnny's (where I met McDreamy).  I was browsing on the Honey Stinger website today and you can go online and find a local dealer near you.  You can also order online (but online is out of stock right now).  So go online....find a store near you and pick up a few packs (or a box) and try them today.... you won't be sorry.

Honey Stinger also has some pretty cool cycling gear... you can check it out on their website HERE.

Enjoy!!

  1. DUDE. These look EXACTLY like stroopwaffles from the Netherlands. Whenever Tommy goes, he brings back stacks and stacks of them. I was always glad they didn't sell them here, because DANGER DANGER! SO YUM. I will be trying these ASAP.

  3. I had the honey one with great anticipation
    and it was a big yuck, all sugar, totally gross. It might be a great marketing ploy
    but unless your a ten year old girl with a sweet tooth its gross.

  4. Undeniably believe that which you stated. Your favorite justification appeared to be on the
    internet the simplest thing to be aware of.
    I say to you, I definitely get annoyed while people consider
    worries that they plainly do not know about. You managed to hit the
    nail upon the top and also defined out the whole thing without having side effect
    , people could take a signal. Will probably be back
    to get more. Thanks
