Thumbs up for dirty bulk. Not for everybody, but effective in ectomorphs who aren't used to eating enough since they can relatively cut back on calories when cutting since they've been eating less all their lives.

Mark Rippetoe agrees:

And folks, for weight-gaining purposes, "eating clean" is not a useful concept. Big Macs are.

I have bought 4-6 double cheeseburgers and thrown away the bread many times. But I think they just raised the price from $1 to $1.25. Rapists.

You guys that worry about eating clean are actually merely bodybuilders looking for justification for your obsession with abs. You cannot get big and strong on 3000 kcal/day. And you cannot eat 7000/day and eat perfectly "clean".
