Oh, yeah, they sell those here but they are just "single slices" or "singles" or w/e. Doesn't say the kind of cheese on it other than 'cheddar'.


Aw crap, now you made me hungry for cheese. Damnit, I seriously have a huge craving for cheese now.

I always crave cheese . It's so awesome . We have string cheese at home and I was going to eat some and I forgot ... I FORGOT

[Sweeney]

Well you can hardly eat them as real food...

I do xD
I'd happily munch my way through a 20pack.

Instead of peeling them, most of the time I just eat them like a stick of cheese... Like damn, cheese is to eat, not to play with.

Tastes better peeled

Oh you're right.... >_< It's funny how it tastes better peeled, but when you eat it like a stick of cheese, it doesn't taste nearly as good.

Indeed. It obtains magical flavoring . I can't explain it either .

[Sweeney]

I think it's the air you get with it.

It's the same as curled-over crisps (chips for you people) tasting nicer than flat ones.

Must be the greater surface area of cheese exposed to air, or the greater surface area of the cheese that has contact with the tastebuds of the tongue as the cheese is consumed.

Probably. I was originally going to mention something about air but I decided that it would be dumb. Better to go with your first instinct eh?

I was surprised Joe mentioned air too. Made me feel more secure with my assumption that air is the culprit.

Or it could be that all three of us are all wrong . Either way, safety in numbers right?

Three million people can't be wrong!

That is what I was relying on. If we are wrong, we are all wrong together!!

But seriously, peeled cheese strings taste better and I would like to know why. I also wish cheese strings came pre-peeled in a big bag or something.

They sell ready-grated cheese in mainland Europe... I've never seen it here, but still, that's uberlazy xD

Wouldn't they get tangled then?

Yeah, they sell the grated stuff here too, but I'm talking long fine strips of cheese.

My Mother bought some like that . I made quesadilla's with it .

If you know how to do something and can afford to have someone else do it for you, then why not?

[Sweeney]

There'd still be lots of air in them then, though, so according to our theory, they'd still be thuper-yummy.

How can you guarentee this though? If they were tangled, the chances of them being mashed together are more likely, making the possibility of returning to a large chunk of cheese greater .

It seems you can never escape the huge chunk .

Grate them so finely that you can sieve it. That'll get plenty of air in your cheese.

The air will always finds its way though, I think. Notice that the grated cheese doesn't necessarily turn into a huge ball (from what I have noticed anyways, it always pours nicely). With stringed cheese, it would tend to want to remain a string too.

They'd have to be kept well refrigerated, to prevent them splurging back together.

Yeah it's only going to stick together if you let your cheese sweat. You don't want sweaty cheese...
