It is Fruit Malt Loaf (also suitable for vegetarians)
Below is the nutritional information:
Per 100g as sold
Energy 1114kj/262kcal
Protein 7.9g
Carbohydrate 55.9g (of which sugars 6.1g)
Fat 0.8g (of which saturates 0.1g)
Fibre 2.1g
Sodium Trace
In my opinion this is a truely excellent food to eat for runners, with the ammount of good carbohydrate and the small amount of fat. I am going to start eating alot of this aswell as a lot of Banana's as I think the added potassium frum the Banana's will top it off.
What do you think great food right? _________________ Shaun Fox |

What exactly is it? The name sounds absolutely disgusting.

Looks like a dense raisin bread of some sort.

This is very close to what we, in the U.S., would refer to as "brown bread". Not sure how really nutritious this really is. I would imagine it is fairly high glycemic, which would make it more suitable for an after workout snack.
Now, here is the real deal on super food: http://www.hornetjuice.com/
