Well this could be a legitimate recommendation, but there are a few things to consider... Chocolate milk is usually sweetened with sugar (or similar), and in this case that's a good thing. This extra sugar combined with already present milk sugars and protein does make a great post workout snack... BUT fat slows carb digestion. So in order for this theory to be good, you'd have to consume fat free chocolate milk...

The idea is sound though. It's effectively a diluted protein shake. And by diluted, I only mean the protein because it isn't concentrated like in powdered form (whey concentrate).
