Why is cheese drawn?

When eating pizza, the strings of heated cheese increase people's appetite. The strings of cheese are not some sticky substances in it, but are formed by protein.

Raw cheese contains long-chain protein molecules, which make cheese appear stringy. This chain shape exists before the cheese is heated. However, at this time, these long-chain protein molecules are curled. When the cheese is heated, the fat and protein in it melt, and the long-chain protein loses its restraints, and the original curled state is stretched, so the melted cheese can easily be pulled into strings.
