Mozzarella String Cheese, 12 OZ
What You Should Know
You'd spot this in the chilled dairy aisle of Whole Foods or pull it from a grab-and-go cooler for lunchboxes, snacks, or a picnic. It has a wholesome, convenient, slightly nostalgic vibe — the low-moisture part-skim processing explains the firm, stringy texture and mild flavor, and the simple ingredient list points to traditional cheese-making rather than heavy industrial reformulation.
