What Causes White Jelly Like Strings In The Mouth?

Hello, I have white jelly like strings that come from my mouth. What is the cause of that and how did I get it? I eat and drink healthy (no soda) and I brush my teeth at least two (2) times a day. It has been happening for about two (2) months, more or less.
