Convert Cell to String

I have a cell array:
x = {'red' 'blue' 'green'}
I need to convert it to a string (looking for another way besides char). So the output would be:
red
blue
green
Thanks, Amanda

A single string with something (like a newline) between the parts? Or one string per cell entry? Is this for storing or for displaying? Could you indicate why using "char" is not desirable ?

You could use something like:
s = sprintf('%s\n', x{:})

Note that this would have newline characters between the parts. I am not sure that is what the poster wants.
