The industrial endurance products work. I didn't have a chance to prepare my usual long distance rice based fuels for my recent Leadville training camp, and while I missed the taste and texture, relying on GU gels and sports drinks on the course worked very well. 6 1/2 hrs the first day, and 3 hrs the next before my illness finally stopped me in my tracks, and the sports "nutrition" worked as advertised.
There is a time and a place.
