The story · 1993

The story of Hundred-Strand Cheese

There were two kinds of people: those who bit straight into Hundred-Strand Cheese and those who peeled it. The peelers were patient. They pulled thinner and thinner strands, draped them over their fingers, made cheese mustaches and claimed to reach a hundred. Nobody ever reached a hundred. Lunch ended long before that.

Fun fact

The wrapper showed a cartoon mozzarella wizard named Stringbeard, who peeled himself to grow a longer beard.
