The Foundary would of course have the T-Nation logo on it for supply the protein and because people would look at it funny and assume I am mass producing steroids.
Some business (and not legal) advice - with my standard disclaimer that I’m not your lawyer, you can’t rely on this and if you have particular questions you should talk to a lawyer:
Look into any local licensure requirements that might apply to fresh-food sellers/restaurants/food carts. One reason the FDA doesn’t require all the nutritional info is the assumption that localities are regulating local fresh-food distribution.
And if you’re serious about the gym or a business, definitely look into forming a business entity (probably an LLC, assuming you want to build and run the business, and not start a chain and get VC investments) that can hold the assets and liabilities separately from your personal assets and liabilities. I’ve heard Legal Zoom can set you up fairly cheaply (relative to other legal prices): LegalZoom: Start a Business, Protect Your Family: LLC, Incorporate, Wills, Trademark, Legal Advice

Hmm good point about the FDA leaving it up to the local areas, I will def look into that!! Haha don’t want to get into legal trouble over something stupid!
With my gym I fully plan on going with the LLC, and I have 2 lawyers that said they would help me out for free (close friends of the family).
I also have my financial backing set up by a venture capitalist firm that is run by my sister’s friends. I would of course have to pay them some of my profits but it wouldn’t be the higher rates that others do. This is of course if I decide not to go with a small business loan. I haven’t fully weighed the pro’s and con’s yet but my main factor is cash flows and which will allow me the lowest possible monthly payments.
But alas they are only “ideas” at the moment since I have yet to act on them.
Back to the matter at hand though, what flavors would you guys like best?
Choices:
Apple Cinnamon
Blueberry
Strawberry
Other(you name it!)
Very possible that the ones who respond will get a free sample this weekend if it doesn’t cost me an arm and a leg to mail it.
Maybe pumpkin pie or coffee cake flavor?
Since I responded, I better be getting some of these next time youre in town.

Next time I buy orange Metabolic Drive you bet I’ll make a batch! I like orange cranberry so I’ll try those.
I make a wicked creamcicle drink! Vanilla vodka works wonders and the ladies love the drink!!

Very true about the carbs. I am on the AD as well as with WS4JB, but these would be nice for carb-up days!
Apple Cinnamon sounds so good right now, and i have no idea why…
I’m a big fan of blueberry as well.
Opening a gym is a great idea. Just open the gym and sell your muffins to the guys and gals that train there. Cash only, no prob, one guy selling to another. Unless some FDA agent happens to walk by and see you selling muffins…“Hey! Was that a muffin you just sold him?!” If anyone asked, you are sharing your muffins and he owed you $3 for a protein shake.
Good Luck man, keep us updated.

Haha I’ll just say he bought a Safeway muffin that I took out of a box 
I will certainly keep everyone updated on both fronts! After all I fully expect T-Nation members to be showing up to my gym!
