Yes monks can drink whey protein at the usual mealtime. And flowers are always good in front of the Buddha statue, but a lot of money is wasted on flowers. Once someone donated over $3000 of flowers to the monastery and we were appalled at the waste. So many more useful things to spend that money on, but I guess it brought them merit and happiness donating.
