Evaporated milk - UK-Muscle Body Building Community

Hi - does anyone think Evaporated milk (whole or semi) is of any use when bulking?

Looking at a cheap (34p supermarket), 410g tin of semi-skimmed Evap:

Roughly : - 32g protein
Roughly : - 460 calories

(roughly 11g of saturated fat - not particularly good but not excessive)

Not bad for a bit over 30 pence! (whole evap's higher calories, similar protein but much higher saturated fat though).

Also - is it of any use as a protein source/muscle preservation ie drink before bed or throughout the day or whatever?

Thanks.

Thanks mate, sounds good. I've just been trying to include evap + dried milk powder into the day, as a cheap and "easy to take" form of protein - apparently, seems to be ok for muscle preservation, atleast.

Cheers.
