Are you saying you're the kind of guy that likes to drink your cum shake straight from the tap?

Nope.  I'm working with a retailer in overhauling their bar set.  Just trying to get some additional input on what people are into right now...

If you want sales, make it taste good.  People are incredibly effecient at convincing themselves that something is good for them if it tastes good. 
Take "Detour." 
Give that same macronutrient breakdown to most bodybuilders and they'll call it junk food. 

Put it in a label as a supplement, and you're a millionaire. 

If you want it to be a good food product, you're probably going to want to go the way of oat bars.  I would imagine you could produce an oat based product that tasted good and could also fit into a diet of someone that's trying to eat "good." 
But, then it would be primarily carb based. 

A protein based bar is probably going to need to be a candy bar with a little whey added in.

 VPX-ZERO Impact bars by VPX.

 The Pumpkin Spice bar tastes almost as good as PUSSY!

 That's a good idea...a 'Pussy' flavored nutrition bar. Hmmm...

Most popular bars here are zero impact by vpx and perfect foods bars, made from natural honey and natural peanut butter. Fly off the shelf no joke.

Supreme Protein Bar, hands down.  There's also a new bar called the Midget Bar, that's like a rice krispy treat covered in PB...friggin awesome.

Me and the boys at the Deuce always eat them during our shift....
At first glance reading quickly I thought you said that "you and your boys always drop a DEUCE after eating them during your shift"

Not to mention the quality of ingredients KILLS everything else out there. It's the only bar I'd recommend for someone trying to eat properly.

Maca Bar & Organic Food Bar have some pretty awesome ingredients too, but Green+ beats them on taste...
