“Drink protein shakes today because there’s no whey in hell”

“There’s no way in hell” (no way at all) is a common expression, often punned as “no whey in hell.” “I heard they banned cheese production there (a place called “Hell” in Scotland—ed.). There is no whey in Hell” was cited in 2008. The nursery rhyme of “Little Miss Muffet” is often added to the joke. “Miss Muffet would starve to death for eternity because there’s no whey in hell” was cited on Twitter on October 23, 2011.
 
“Get all the protein you can before you die because there’s no whey in Hell” was posted on Reddit on July 5, 2016.
   
 
Wikipedia: Little Miss Muffet

Lyrics
Little Miss Muffet
Sat on a tuffet,
Eating her curds and whey;
Along came a spider
Who sat down beside her
And frightened Miss Muffet away.

I always wanted to go there and a place in North Scotland so I could say I have been to Hell and Back.
 
I heard they banned cheese production there. There is no whey in Hell.

A friend told me sinful people can still enjoy protein shakes in the afterlife; I told him there’s no whey in hell.

Miss Muffett expected quite well
The words to her satan would tell
Regarding the curds
He had positive words
But then said “There is no whey in hell”
