Oatmeal Cream Pies, Zebra Cakes, Cosmic Brownies, etc. we all have our favorites, but surprisingly most of the folks out here are not big on convenience store runs mid ride. Hell, I even get odd looks from my teammates when I buy a 48 oz fountain drink, pound half and then top off my bottles with the balance.
Rest assured my my midwestern friends, I have not forgotten your teachings, rather it was some bad luck and an unwillingness to smack the taste out of a cashier's mouth that led to my demise today. We stopped at a store mid ride and to my dismay they didn't have ANY of the aforementioned trollop's wares for sale. I settled on a big ass cookie and a bottle of coke that was supposed to be $0.99 but rang up at $1.49 after some debate with the cashier over the price of said cola, I was forced to buy only the coke as it was all that my postdoctoral salary was able to afford. Two hours later my cola buzz wore off and I stared to fade.
All in all it was a four on the bourbometer:

You should always carry at least 3 bars that are 250+ cal each!
Oh wait, maybe that's more of a B&B thing. Hmmm.
Do they have chocodiles out your way?
