Topic: What to eat during the marathon?

I tried the power bar this past weekend (19 km run). Took a bite at the 8km mark but even though I drank lots with it I found my mouth felt dry afterwards. Will try a gel this weekend. I know I can digest pretzels before a run so can probably resort to those if I have to but felt some of the other supplements on the market might provide me with more of a boost later in the marathon.
