I stopped eating breakfast (cereal) but milk consumption hasn't dropped. My family of 4 goes through 2 gallons of whole per week.

In high school I'd start my morning with a quart of chocolate milk.

I've attempted and failed twice to drink a gallon of milk in an hour. I can drink the first 3/4 of a gallon in 10 minutes, and can't choke down the last 1/4 in the remaining 50. First time I attempted this I learned to warm the milk first, because putting 8lbs of 38 degree fluid into your body can make you hypothermic.

If I were to try again, I'd warm to room temperature, slam the first 1/4 immediately, then wait until 15 minutes are left on the clock to slam the remainder. Probably would still fail.

Milk seems to be in shorter supply in these parts, and the price has gone up a bit.
