Not sure if this fits in 'Health' or 'Equipment' but, Jelly Babies are a perenial favourite of fellrunners; they usually have bovine gelatine in them so are unsuitable for vegetarians. Does anybody know if veggie friendly 'Babies are available and, if so, are they any good?

A bear not a baby, but same thing. Perhaps a baby bear? Beggar it, you know what I mean...
Be Humble. Sit Down.
Not too sure. However, I have just bought some Natural Confectionery Company Dino Mix today ! I compared the ingredients to the Jelly Babies & there seemed to be less ingredients in them. However, they do still have bovine gelatine in them. I'll let you know how they perform on my 18 miler this afternoon !

Alas they too have Bovine gelatine, Sorry lola
Squirms ? Are these for pleasure or as a running aid Ian ? Or both ?? They're on my list !
JB's always leave a "claggy" taste in my mouth !
Oh my!!!
Loads of lovely stuff to ruin my health with - thank you very much for the link, 'bears on their way already.
Wine Gums for me as they don't have that slightly powdery nature of jelly babies.. Think they've still got bovine gelatine though.
If you don't mind spending a bit more, Sharkies energy sweets are excellent.
Non available,get a steak and kidney pie down yer.
Asda's own brand Fruit Jellies are veggie and go down great
I've never actually tried Jelly Babies before, but Tesco had em on offer last night , so I've bought some and am going to try them out on my Duddon recce on Friday...
for the record, I usually survive off: cashew nuts, flapjack, nutri-grain bars, cocktail sausages, pasties and rice pud
it's rare that I fancy anything sweeter than flapjack - rather than sweeties I usually just stick with energy drink for full-on sugar hit
