What if milk did not exist?

[LaGrunge]

If milk did not exist, what would you recommend athletes drink/eat in addition to their diet in order to get big/strong?

[Mark Rippetoe]

Like god, if milk did not exist it would be necessary to create it. Or to eat a pound of liver a day. Thank god for your milk.

Rip: You need to drink one gallon of full fat milk everyday. It's almost mandatory.

Somebody from audience: I'm lactose intolerant, could I substitute milk for yogurt?

Rip: Gallon of yogurt.
