I love my sugar :( but it is very heavy to carry much of it on portages. I sub sugar-free fruit drink mixes for beverages and splenda for my coffee.
I always buy a bag of jelly beans and divide it among the days I will be out. They are easy to snack on while portaging and that is when you need the energy boost. Gimbal's jelly beans available at Wal-mart are very tasty. ;)
