The Gallon Challenge

Hey guys,

I miserably failed the gallon challenge today. First of all, I didn't have a gallon of 2% or more milk; I only had fat free milk.

Second, I just suck at it.

I got down about a quarter gallon in 15 minutes, and then I just started throwing up.

I want you guys to share YOUR gallon challenge experiences. ;)

For those of you who don't know what it is, the challenge is to drink a gallon of 2% or more milk in one hour, and then hold it in for another.

Thanks,

Hmmm. I think I will just be a spectator in this challenge.:weirdface

Unless you have lactose intolerance there is no excuse! :8:

No way could I do it with any type of milk, good for you if you can....
I on an average used to drink 2 gallons of water throughout the day, (yes I've been tested my whole life for diabetes, as that is apparently a sign) I just drink an unusual amount of water (yeah try being on a mountain bike ride with me my whole camel pak is water..LOL)
Now due to medication I have to take, I had to add in some Lasix (which is a diuretic!) I swear I think I may be up to Four Gallons of water...
With that said I couldn’t even keep down a quart of milk... now or in the past...
That is Definitely a challenge

I could do it. I would too, it the cost of milk were not so flippin' high.
:mad:

Your stomach is not made to tolerate a full gallon, especially not of high fat milk(as opposed to water), which is why people have issues with trying to drink an entire gallon of milk(and why they specify 2% or more).
Nope, sorry, I prefer not to guzzle down milk as a challenge, and especially I prefer not to vomit up milk.

What would compel someone to do this?

I've done it with whole milk, no big deal. That was when I was maybe 14 and had a bottomless pit for a stomach.

My stomach cant stretch that much. Water, maybe. :P I like water.

Ick. The thought alone of consuming that much milk makes me gag.

I'll pass this challenge.

Can I have Coco Pebbles in mine?

Come back when you can eat 5 pounds of butter. Then I'll be impressed. :gj:

Can I substitute the milk for Guinness or Carlsberg Export :gj:

Well, when you're a kid you're pretty much up to anything stupid. I thought I could do it, I honestly did.

Technically, no... but you can always try!

Ok, I dare anyone who can do the "milk challenge" to eat a tablespoon of cinnamon, Come on you can do it.....

I can only guess a "pick your poison" would do well here...

i thought it was proven physically impossible because the average human stomach is less than a gallon...

It's possible, one guy even managed to get 2 gallons down. Not sure if it's true, just read it somewhere.

But I do know a gallon is possible.

I have to say, at about 4 am one morning in studio (we all had a project due the next day) someone paid a guy $2 to chug a gallon of orange juice. As much as I have heard it can't be done, I (along with everyone else that was still up) watched as he downed *the whole thing* Of course he lowed the jug, looked around and threw it all back up. But still....it was pretty impressive to see him just chug the whole thing.

That's just what happens when you get stressed students together in the wee hours of the morning :P

A gallon in an hour? My kids can probably give you a run for your money. I have to put the milk on the very top shelf of the fridge so the kids won't finish the whole thing in an hour... I swear, sometimes I feel like they're going to eat me out of house and home!

Last year, my girlfriend went home from college one weekend and my buddies and I were bored... So I starting chugging my fresh 2% gallon of milk--- I got about 4 big chugs down. Then my stomach felt like I swallowed some razors and I threw it all back up and felt great....


The gallon challenge got me good...

I go thru a gallon of milk a day easy, drinking a gal in 1 hour is def not a problem

The gallon of milk challenge is deceptively difficult: a gallon of something cold, and a gallon of something full of lactose. I watched 8 people attempt it, only one finished (a 280 pound man). And his story of how the rest of his night went was enough to dissuade me from ever trying it.....ever!

I'm probably going to stir up some controversy here, but do you ever think about how weird it is we drink cow milk?

Would you drink rat milk? How about monkey milk? In my opinion it's so bizarre that we drink a hormone/nutrition delivery system designed for infant cows without even blinking an eyelash...in fact, our economy depends on it.

I think its a lot weirder if we were to still continue to drink human milk.

I think its all perception, i guess thats the word to use... We wouldnt eat dogs and cats here in america ( maybe some do! :O:confused:) But, over in foreign countries.... its a totally normal thing! Its still protein.... its just... something we all keep as pets here, so of COURSE that is strange and weird.

It would be the same thing, as say.... eating human flesh. Its still protein and some cultures even now still consume human flesh, and even afterbirth for good luck! Gross right!?

Milk, is still nutrients and other basic things for growing up small critters, into big strong ones. Its still a food product, just... made from an animal. I eat animals.... so, whats the big deal really?

i wonder how many ppl actually think about this while joining these stupid challenges http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/16614865/

Yea i wonder also :weirdface:weirdface

actually it should be impossible, just like the tablespoon of cinnamon. The lactic acid in the milk combines with the gastric acid in your stomach and creates a highly acidic environment in your stomach. Your stomach can't handle the strong acidity, thus the vomiting commences. The tablespoon of cinnamon dries out all of your salivary glands and irritates the cilia in the back of your throat, making you cough, gag, wheeze, and spit it back up

It should be impossible, no doubt. But I have seen someone do it. And correct me if I'm wrong, but you have to keep it all down for at least 15 minutes / half an hour for it to fully count...chugging and then throwing it immediately back up doesn't count.

Me? Drink cow milk? Never.

I have dairy goats. ;)

I had a good discussion a while back on another thread about that but I'm far too lazy to repeat myself now. :P

Not really, milk is good for you and the reason we dont drink rat milk or monkey milk because ( not because...one of the reasons) they do not provide enough milk or stay still long enough. Im not sure if it taste the same either, but if someone stuck a glass of rat milk in front of me id surely try it:salute:

For you lactating moms out there... do you know that you can sell your breast milk for $23 an ounce? When I had my firstborn, I was thinking seriously of quitting my programming job and be a "cow" full-time! ;)

Ive tried before. Got about 3/4 in 10 minutes then BLAAH. Its not just milk, try it with any liquid and you cant do it. Water is free and you don't waste that delicious milk some cow provided you!! Water comes up nicer than milk also.

Now THAT'S a feat. :gj:

I wish I had a video, but I have seen a gallon of 2% Chocolate milk followed by a half-gallon of OJ put down in 2 minutes .. ish. On stage. He did puke off stage, but just the fact that he could put that down was awesome.

Not healthy, but awesome.

wouldn't want to do it with milk... more than a glass makes me sick. I chugged a 3-liter of root beer when I was a kid, I'm sure I could easily do it again. not quite a gallon... hmm... maybe 2 2-liters of diet coke. I'd be up for that. Of course, I think that might be enough to break my addiction to that stuff!
