If there is open space the warm cheese may ooze out. But don't worry if some cheese escapes, they still taste great! If you want to make them bite size for a party, cut the cheese stick into thirds. This will also give you more wrapper to work with, so no cheese should escape. If you don't have an egg white, just use water. Not Italian seasoning? Just use oregano, parsley, basil or whatever you have on hand. Try it with Monterey Jack cheese sticks, cilantro seasoning, and your favorite salsa for dipping.
