Little Miss Muffett

There's no poetry section here so I'll pretend this is a mini-song.

Little Miss Muffett was in a hurry,
And I'm sure I heard her say,
"Please help yourself to my curds,
But stay the hell out of my whey".

What is whey?!

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 ??-lactalbumin and ??-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.

The stuff looks like pee or my homebrew or somebody peed in my homebrew.
