Here's perhaps the most unlikely entry yet in the recent spate of ads showcasing buttocks of every kind.

It's a bid to promote the brand's "Cheestrings Spaghetti" line extension, and here the Chees-guy is wearing a very form-fitting bathing suit. You might call it … a string-cheese bikini! He's got super-tight glutes (like a finely aged cheddar), but those who eat this stuff regularly might wind up with thighs and derrieres of the cottage-cheese variety.
