Ok, här kommer en modernare översättning av McCallums GBD.
Denna drink är för folk som har svårt att öka i vikt.
Har själv blandat ihop den under vissa perioder, smakar riktigt bra. Lägg gärna i lite is när ni mixar ihop den. Ett annat tips, skaffa en STOR mixer.
Dricker man en GBD om dagen så kan man inte komma gnällande att man inte ökar i vikt.
Syrup=sirap.

For those McCallumites out there, one of the toughest things to do is actually produce the Get Big Drink as John outlined. Part of this problem, of course, is that John himself listed about 4 versions of it (if you read closely enough) with the amount of eggs and other goodies changing a bit. The main problem is that the primary ingredient is "a day's supply of Hoffman's Gain Weight" which hasn't been produced in the last 10 years. Another oddity is that he recommended 1/2 a "brick" of chocolate ice cream. Well, for measurement sake, 1/2 a brick is a cup, or 1/4 a liter (a brick is a pint: 1/2 liter). So for the sake of keeping the tasty beverage alive, I thought I would offer the following information: Hoffman's Gain Weight was basically a combination carbohydrate and protein supplement. The fat content was derived from its use of powdered whole milk, and the main protein source was a combination of soy and milk. The only reason this is important is because you really don't need more carbohydrates in this beverage -- it is already loaded to the gills. As John was notorious for rounding his nutrient values off to the nearest 10th AND downward, the drink also packs more of a wallop than you may think! Here is the original recipe:
1. 1 day supply Hoffman's Gain Weight: Value's unknown (we'll get to that).
2. 1/2 gallon (2 liters) whole milk: 1200 calories, 64 grams protein.
3. 2 cups (1/2 liter) skim milk powder: 510 calories, 48 grams protein.
4. 2 large raw eggs: 150 calories, 14 grams protein.
5. 4 Tablespoons Peanut Butter: 380 calories, 16 grams protein.
6. 1/2 brick Chocolate ice cream: 285 calories, 5 grams protein.
7. 1 small banana: 92 calories, zero protein.
8. 4 Tablespoons Malted Milk Powder: 100 calories, 3 grams protein.
9. 6 Tablespoons Corn Syrup: 335 calories, zero protein.
Now, John wrote that this contained approximately 3,000 calories and 200 grams of protein and was to be taken in about 10 glasses throughout the day (the whole thing in 1 day, every day during a weight gain period). Well, if you add up the ingredients you see that WITHOUT the Hoffman's Gain Weight, the totals already come to 3,052 calories and 150 grams of protein. Simple math shows you that if you wanted to recreate this drink as closely as possible, a simple 50 grams of protein powder (Hoffman's Gain Weight was Chocolate or Vanilla flavored) from either a pure protein or a weight gainer would do the trick. To mimic the taste, I'd recommend a soy and milk based protein. Weider's Dynamic Weight Gain Formula #7 was very close, as is MLO's Weight Gain. I can't vouch for the quality vs. label claims of those products though, but they are probably close enough. Base the recommended "day's supply" of whatever you choose around 50 grams of protein and you are on the right track. And, yes... it tastes good. It will also fatten you up a bit, so be mindful of that. "
