If you check out this site:
http://www.innovatewithdairy.com/InnovateWithDairy/Articles/Article_Whey_Baked_082306.htm
it will tell you how they take out the protein, what's left and what they do
with it. It is mostly lactose (which as we all know a problem for many
people too). It seems to offer good things for the baking industry...but
the site is pro-milk so, there's a little bias there. But, I now know how
and why.
And it's something else to look for and avoid.
(And, in response to the margarine comments above, yeah, I hate shopping for
margarine, it's one of the few things I am brand loyal about as there are so
few brands that are without milk (at least here in Canada) and that are
affordable. I just think it's funny to have buttermilk in a tub of "I Can't
Believe it's Not Butter".)
