I forgot Jelly babesThese are my favourite for cycling, as ridiculous as I know they sound...
Sugary and juicy, and they aren't sticky like most sweets

I just can't imagine life without bananas. My typical daily consumption is about 3.
There's a growing list of things I cant &/or shouldn't eat for medical reasons and I have great sympathy over the problem. I can't use energy drinks - they're in the banned category - so when riding I take water, or occasionally diet cola (sugary drinks are a problem). If I need an energy boost I eat Soreen, usually the original version, or flap-jack (which you said you can't use)
Sounds like a nasty situation.

Scotialass - I'm a regular Porridge eater in the mornings and find it very good for me. However I make it only with using water so if milk is a problem for you then don't use it at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did my first long (to me) ride this weekend. Diet was normal breakfast (poached eggs - from my own hens 
- on wholemeal toast), porridge made with water & topped with milk about an hour before the off, then Haribos en-route. Mid ride I had a small Snicker bar.
For fluids I drank about a bottle of water during the 30mile ride.
The Haribos helped a lot for a quick energy fix.
