Answer
Whey protein is just from the milk. It's a byproduct of cheese making.

The best choice for protein for you in keeping with your beliefs, would be from legumes (anything that grows in a pod), like soy, peanuts, etc.
 Soy milk is often supplemented with protein and is a favorite for vegetarians. There is even soy 'ice cream' that has no dairy whatsoever, but is very good!

There are plenty of options for you - take a look at my site for vegetarian selections
