I've really been wondering if gels actually help. Could honey work just as well? It's cheaper and tastes much better.

I think you do have to replenish eventually. Around mile 20 for me but I think it depends a lot on your pace, how you've trained, and overall distance.
Gels and chews are very compact so it's easy to carry on long runs.
Honey could work just as well I recon the difference is around digesting it.
