I'm not drinking 4 cups of whole milk for breakfast. I'm probably never going to eat a cup of almonds and some celery for lunch... I think you need to put some serious work into making sure that each suggestion is appetizing as opposed to rummaging through the pantry and finding something that technically meets the requirements.

There's a sliding scale for this sort of thing For instance: I would happily drink 4 cups (which sounds to me like approx 1litre ... I really dislike 'cup' measurements) of whole milk every morning

  I would happily drink [a liter] of whole milk every morning Same here, plus you could throw in some stevia & cocoa to make it chocolate milk without adding much extra energy.

    Off topic for the thread but seeing as you highlighted it: isn't 'liter' the US spelling, while 'litre' is the (correct) UK one? (I'm in Ireland, and tend to cringe when I see 'Americanisms' :( )

      Just because it's "litre" in the UK and "liter" in the US doesn't make one correct and one incorrect. The latter is the correct spelling in American English.

    Wouldn't that amount of whole milk just make you vomit? (not an expert, just asking). Is there some trick to keeping it down?

      It shouldn't, but it gets to be a lot of milk. Most people (that aren't dairy sensitive) could probably stomach a few more cups (8 fl oz.) without losing it, maybe up to 1/2 gallon. Throwing up usually happens when people try to drink a whole gallon in an hour type thing.

  Agreed, I think cup is irrelevant outside of US - UK - AUS. Here it's just like saying drink "4 glasses of milk" - how much is this exactly? As usual it's a bit obnoxious to think your only customers / users come from those countries.

    cup is basically irrelevant in the UK too.

Yes, apparently it's using celery to "round up" the values if it's "not there" yet and it needs some more calories.
