You're viewing a single thread.
If the microchip just contains a unique serial ID you can check with the producer, it would be just as easy to print it in the casing or glue it to the side of the wheel, no need to implant it in the outermost layer of cheese.
It is just glued on it. It's just on the label, not implanted inside the cheese wheel. The "you could be eating microchips!!!" part of the article is pure clickbait.
All they say is they'd be safe to eat if for some reason it ended up in the cheese. Like the rest of the label I guess.
It is glued to the side... The article is just bullshit.
