What Wikipedia says

Whey cheese is a dairy product made of whey, the by-product of cheesemaking. In cheese production, after the curds are separated, the whey still contains about 50% of the milk solids, including most of the lactose and lactalbumin. Whey cheese is made from those solids, which would otherwise be discarded.
