Velociraptor Apr 2018 8:18pm, 6 Apr 2018 38,064 posts	Quote Pin Velociraptor [I asked GU on their facebook page what the advantage was of their stroopwafels over normal stroopwafels. Amino acids and electrolytes, apparently. There is the amino acid equivalent of less than half a gram of digested protein in one GU stroopwafel, and a tiny bit of salt. If you want protein, there's more in a conventional stroopwafel, but during exercise it's an irrelevance. A good example of marketing over substance. And what's with the funny flavours?]
