You drink half a gallon of milk a day? Wow. I'm about as white as they make 'em, and if I drank a half gallon of milk, I'd absolutely have an incident.

There's a famous weight-gaining diet called Gallon Of Milk A Day (GOMAD) recommended by strength coaches, most recently Mark Rippetoe of Starting Strength. He gets asked about it a lot: https://startingstrength.com/resources/forum/general-q-and-a...

Well, he didn't exactly recommend it outright.

It was more like a dare, along the lines of: if you claim that you can't gain weight, just take whatever you are currently doing, and add a gallon of milk a day.

A jar of peanut butter a day would also work. Or just increasing your intake of calories overall.
