This sentence is a correlative conjunction. Correlative conjunctions require the use of two words put in separate parts of the sentence for example, "whether/or", "either/or", "neither/nor", "not/but." So in the sentence "Either you must stop eating my food from the refrigerator or you must pay for it." The use of either and or make it correlative.
