Does this apply to chocolate milk as well?

Of course it isn't true.

Why would you want to do this? There is absolutely nothing beneficial to human's in cow's milk.

Humans are the only animal that drinks milk past infancy, and then it's not even from the correct species! Too many people are still trying to defend milk's supposed health benefits. Unfortunately, they are either using old information or information obtained from research funded by the dairy association. How many people would enjoy a glass of dog's milk or rat's milk? What makes cows special?

There are only two reasons which I've found to support humans drinking cow's milk. We have grown up hearing that it's good for us and we've grown accustomed to the taste and texture. There is absolutely no nutrition that can not be obtained elsewhere, minus the negatives. Calcium seems to be the major claim for milk. It can be found elsewhere in green vegetables, almonds, and many other sources. Where do you think the cows obtain the calcium to put into the milk? Where do other larger animals (elephants, horses, deer, whales, etc) get calcium? Why we continue to drink cow's milk laced with growth hormones, antibiotics, and who knows what else is beyond me.

Since I've given up drinking milk about 5 years ago my health has greatly improved. I suffer fewer allergy problems, asthma and breathing problems are greatly reduced, I'm sleeping better, and I have more energy.

In the '50s smoking was considered harmless but now we realize its dangers. One person at a time and eventually the truth will become widely known that cow's milk is only for baby cows. Milk is indeed the perfect food, but only for infants of the proper species.

Do some research online and decide for yourself.

Actually, the story I've heard is that you can't drink an entire gallon of milk in an hour and keep it down. We had a bet set up at the Starbucks I worked at to see who could do it. The winner would get $100. Several guys tried it and weren't able to keep the milk down for the whole hour. The challenge is not so much can you consume that much liquid, it's can you consume that much milk. Your body can handle a gallon of water because it pretty much just goes straight through you. But milk has to be processed through your body and absorbed and all that stuff and it can't do a gallon's worth in an hour. That is why this is considered impossible.

We also had a bet up to see who could eat a teaspoon of cinnamon, which is also considered an impossible feat. I'm not sure why though. I think it's because you don't have enough salvia to get it down? I'm not sure. No one tried that one though.

I don't think so. I drink milk like that. I'm addicted to milk. I could polish off half a gallon in an hour or two.

I could drink a liter of milk, no problem. I think 4 liters, or a gallon, is impossible.
