cheese pulls

Pizza slice strings

Cheese pulls are the stretchy strands of melted cheese that form when pulling apart foods like pizza, grilled cheese sandwiches, or mozzarella sticks.

The term describes both the action and the visual result—prized in food photography and advertising as a sign of quality melted cheese: Look at that cheese pull!

The stretchier the better.
