How does Roctane compare to original Gu? Is it worth the higher price?

Answer: There is more quantity of 'Stuff' in Roctane. I use it only for workouts of 2 hours or more or for a race. I use the Original GU for most of my daily workouts. So I think it worth having some Roctane on hand for those extended workouts but not for everyday use.

I would like to know if the gel is vegan / vegetarian?

I think so. I looked at the ingredients and the only thing that looks like it might not be vegetarian is "Gellan Gum." Not 100% sure though.

Do the caffeine free flavored really give better results than regular GU?

I use the regular Gu and the caffeine free Roctane versions (never use Gu w/ caffeine) and I do notice a difference between the regular and the roctane. I generally only use roctane on super long / strenuous hikes or backpacking routes (16+mi/4000+ elevation), so, arguably, I need something "extra" and it does seem to make a difference. I've also shared them with others (friends and strangers) who were struggling (one time, in the Grand Canyon where it was 118 and we had to climb with heavy packs). Others have made the same observation without my prompting them. It could be placebo, but it would still be worth the $$ to produce the same results.

Would these be useful in a bug out bag / ergency kit as an extra source of nutrition/electrolytes?

I don't think this is the best way given the space/weight and expiration. I'd suggest electrolyte capsules (like endurolytes extreme or saltstick). In any case, all of these would require water - electrolytes help your body maintain proper moisture levels (among other things) but cannot do that without the moisture - hence water. Having some bottled water and a water filter (and possibly the drops, like aquafina) is a good plan. Also, the real worry would be nutrition (given proper nutrition electrolytes will hardly be a problem unless extreme exertion), so some freeze-dried meals / canned goods / dehydrated foods would be good, but again, you'll need water and a stove of some sort (don't forget the lighter/matches). Just keep an eye on the expiration dates of all of these items and update them as needed.

If you are looking for an amazing BOOST!! to your performance then this product is the BEST by far! I take it 10 minutes before my run and WOW the results are FANTASTIC!! I warm up for 2 miles easy jog and then stretch for 10 minutes. I then do a few 25 meter sprints. Then I run a 5 or 10K run and I have lots of energy to destroy hills, stairs etc... I am also soo alert and my focus is super SHARP!! this is the best gel product I have EVER taken!! Ps the Pineapple flavour is beautiful and caffeine FREE!!

Just finished marathon with this new formula gel. Did not hit the wall! My legs usually give up after 30K, but not this time. So I guess this roctane thing really works.

Gu Roctane is my go to gel for half and full marathons. I like the ones with caffeine. Unfortunately, they upset my tummy. But I love this gel.

Great taste and provides the energy I need for my long rides. I don't think this flavor is included in the variety packs, as all my riding mates are surprised that I have pineapple and they all want to try it. No complains thus far after about 9 months using it.
