I would buy and use what you've tried in training.

Cathy is right on. I would not try something new on raceday.
I used Thermotabs, which are possibly the product you are talking about, and had no difficulties, save one. On the bike, they are fine, but on the run, they do not survive the bouncing inside a container (I used a M&M container) and pulverized into a fine powder (like talc). I used a plastic bag next time, and that worked fine, no salt powder. I switched to capsule form endurolytes the next season.
Good Luck!
