String cheese should always be stored in the refrigerator to maintain its freshness and prevent spoilage. Keep it in its original packaging or an airtight container. Properly refrigerated string cheese can last for several weeks beyond the 'sell-by' date. Discard if you notice any signs of mold or an off odor.
