Will we always be expected to carry treats to get the dog to behave? How long do you use treats to train a habit? For example, at what point do we transition from giving treats to expecting them to just repeat the behavior?
With an established reward history, you will find that you do not need to use food rewards every time. In the beginning, high value treats are used every time to teach the dog that doing the behavior is rewarding. Think of it like motivation. Understanding what your dog finds rewarding is helpful by doing a reward inventory. You can find that your dog is rewarded not only by food, but also by toys, or praise or touching. Each dog will have different preferences. So later on, you can use one of these other rewards. What I see regularly is that people confuse luring with rewarding. That is where you use food to get the position or behavior you want but you don't fade the lure. It's this confusion that is going on when I hear "my dog won't do what I ask unless I show them the food first."
