    They do look good, but my horse electrolytes are not approved for human consumption so I'd check that before eating any if you make them. Plus, they probably taste like salt.

    I actually packed them in my saddle bags and used them along the way on the ride. Pre and post-ride I add electrolytes to her beet pulp and so long as she'll eat that I don't mess with her. But I can't do that during a ride. Some endurance riders use paste (like wormer tubes) but Nilla hates being dosed like that so I had to find another way to get her eating them.
