Shop products for String Cheese 
A popular snack cheese, this cheese is a favourite among children.
The most widely available string cheese is a semisoft mozzarella that has been pulled into strands and then braided or molded into rods about the size of a fat pencil. The original string cheese was produced in Syria or Armenia, and tended to be pleasantly saltier, stringier, and firmer than the semisoft string cheese available in most markets today.
Varieties
String cheese is available as packages of individual cream-colored rods, although sometimes it comes in a braided shape. It is also available in smoked and unsmoked varieties, or flavored with garlic or onion.
Preparation, uses, and tips
This is a popular snack cheese. It is a favourite with children because it is fun to pull apart the strings that make up the rod shapes so they can be eaten individually.
