I was contacted by Goody GOOD STUFF back in March 2012 to see if Id like to trial their products and let them know what I thought so here are my thoughts, what I think of their products and a little comparison to a couple of the top selling energy sweets on the market here in the UK.

They have 8 different products in their range including:

So a great mix of flavours to suit all… Running Ultra Marathons like I do, you want to carry energy on you, variety for me is helpful so not to have to have the same old thing every time you go out for a run.

Some of the energy sweets Ive tried in the past are too sweet and sickly, which out on a long run isnt great so what I found great with Goody GOOD STUFF was that they not only gave the energy needed but also tasted great too. My favourite was the Strawberry Cream and Tropical Fruit.

For the vegitarian, these are perfect, they are made with all natural ingredients too where many of the other energy sweets contain artificial colouring and plenty of E Numbers.

These sweets are truely naturally delicious…

Quick Facts:

With the XNRG SAS Challenge only a couple of weeks away on the Brecon Beacons I know what Im packing into by Pack for a bit of extra energy.

Comparisons:

Brand	KJ/Kcals per 100g	Carbs	Fat	Notes
Goody GOOD STUFF	1340kj/320kcals	77g	0.1g	Great taste, very palatable, great variety
Clif Bar Shots Bloks	1392kj/333kcals	80g	0g	Great taste but full of E Numbers
Sport Beans	1460kj/358kcals	86g	0g	Very sugary taste but comes out top on kcals.

Best for Energy per 100g is Sport Beans but if you want a nice tasting sweet that gives plenty of energy, that doesnt taste sickly and is free from artificial colours and flavouring you have to go for Goody GOOD STUFF!
