Don't actually start shit please.

So my take

meat takeis that boneless chicken wings are in all ways superior to normal chicken wings.

vegetarian takeFirm tofu is hands down better than all other forms of tofu, tempeh, etc.

And mash potatoes on pizza isn't actually that bad. Just make it a proper pureé instead of smooshing up a baked potato with a spoon and calling it a day.

not a hot take more like a disgusting thought but I wonder what would happen if you made cheese with a mixture of soy and dairy milk, so it has that whey AND soy protein, i wonder what that would be like

Sorry, I have to do it - Whey is the part of milk that is (mostly) not in cheese. It is the byproduct of cheese making.

Pretty sure its what is left of the solution that didn't react to the rennet. The proteins in the milk will react with the rennet agent until the agent is exhausted, with the leftover solution being the whey.

Yes, kind of, specific proteins (eg casein) in the milk react with rennet (or acid) and coagulate. That leaves other proteins (eg lactoglobulin) in a water solution that we call whey. It isn't that the rennet or acid is used up, it is that the proteins that will coagulate under those conditions have all coagulated and separated from the whey.
