    I'm considering eating 250g of peanut butter every day, in addition to 2-3 other meals and a half-gallon of whole milk. This is 1666 calories of peanut butter.

    Haha hey Lyle. I already do it many days, I guess because it's an easy way to get decent calories in? I am 6-foot-7 and weigh 235 lbs. so my caloric requirements are high. I should mention if it wasn't clear this is for weight/strength gain.

    I just read that about a wrestler that ate 2 cans of tuna, jar of peanut butter and milk for every meal.

    I also eat a lot of peanut butter but would grow tired of eating 250g every single day.

    I have probably eaten that much as my all time max.

    Also, certain nuts & legumes can have harmful effects in very large quantities. Youll probably be ok, but weird shit can happen.

    Id eat a little less and put more focus on your real meals. Choose fatty cuts of meat. Eat rice etc.

    If you wanted to get more calories in, yes. I tried eating about that much every day, got bored and started putting it in shakes instead, roll on 2000kcal shakes

    That amount of peanut butter alone is a whopping 36 grams of omega 6. You're setting yourself up to some major inflammation which would get in the way of recovery and possible cause tons of joint pain, not to mention heart disease, leptin resistance, etc.
