noun, the cream which remains in the whey after the curd has been removed (“whey, n.” OED); see also whey-butter
“I was kind of fortunate when you think about it, because like my dad, well two or three times a week, he’d be taking whey-cream to the 1:00 boat for to ship to the creamery in Kingston. So that gave me a trip down to the Village two or three times a week.”
