I use Apple & Eve juice boxes (the smallish ones) at home and at the gym. They're about $7 a case at Sam's, 14 grams of carbs per box. I have a stash of juice boxes and Starbursts at work and in the car. Skittles are good, but too hard to count especially when you're shaky and your brain is addled.

I used to just cram food into my mouth - you're hungry and not really thinking straight, but the highs afterwards were as much of a bummer as the lows, so I primarily stick to the juice boxes.
