whey is not vegetarian because a little baby cow has to die for it. That's why most *real* vegetarians wouldn't eat anything with whey. It's what stays in the milk after they made cheese. Cheese is not vegetarian because it contains rennet. This rennet then is in the milk that is left, too, therefore also in the whey.

Unfortunately, I didn't know about this until I was 16, although I was raised as a vegetarian since early childhood. That's why I eat things with whey. But I try to reduce it. There's also whey without rennet, you can buy it at shops for vegetarians.

DIFFERENCE VEGETARIAN - VEGAN:
VEGETARIANS DON'T EAT SOMETHING THAT AN ANIMAL HAD TO DIE FOR
VEGANS EAT NO ANIMAL PRODUCTS AT ALL

FOR RENNET, A COW HAS TO DIE --> A REAL VEGETARIAN WOULD NOT EAT IT!!!

Whey or milk plasma is the liquid remaining after milk has been curdled and strained; it is a by-product of the manufacture of cheese or casein and has several commercial uses. Whey is used to produce ricotta and gjetost cheeses and is used to make many other products for human consumption and as an animal feed. Whey proteins mainly consist of α-lactalbumin and β-lactoglobulin. Depending on the method of manufacture, it may also contain glycomacropeptides (GMP).

Whey is now marketed in two forms, which are related to the processing method for the product: Whey protein concentrate (WPC) and Whey protein isolate (WPI).

The whey protein separated from this mixture is often sold as a nutritional supplement. In addition, liquid whey contains lactose, vitamins, and minerals along with traces of fat. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden discovered that whey appears to stimulate insulin release. Writing in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition[1] they also discovered that whey supplements can help regulate and reduce spikes in blood sugar levels among people with type 2 diabetes by increasing Insulin secretion

Dietary concerns

The most commonly used milk curdling agent is the animal-derived rennet. Vegetarians may use vegetable-source rennet or lemon juice, citric acid or sulfuric acid to separate milk into curds and whey.
People who are allergic to dairy proteins or intolerant to lactose may need to avoid consuming whey.

Whey is what's left over after milk is curdled or strained. It's also known as milk plasma. Whey is the by-product in the manufacture of cheese. Whey itself is used to make certain types of cheeses and many other food products.

"Little Miss Muffet" is a nursery rhyme. Like many such rhymes, its origins are unclear. Some claim it was written by Dr. Thomas Muffet, a 16th century English entomologist, for his step-daughters; others claim it refers to Mary, Queen of Scots, who was said to have been frightened by John Knox, a Scottish religious reformer in the 16th century. The latter explanation is doubted by most literary scholars, who note that stories linking folk tales or songs to political events are a common urban legend.

"Little Miss Muffet" first appeared in print in 1805, in a book titled Songs for the Nursery.

Lyrics
Little Miss Muffet
Sat on a tuffet,
Eating her curds and whey.
Along came a spider,
Who sat down beside her,
And frightened Miss Muffet away!
A "tuffet" can be a small stool, often three-legged and topped with a cushion, or a tuft of earth and grass.
