I don’t think you know how this cheese works. The rind is edible. It has the strongest flavour, so it’s what’s used in sauces, etc. If you ever had parmesan in a sauce e.g. at a restaurant, you ate the rind. Hence the need to put an edible microchip in it – because people are expected to eat it.
No you’re good. I can see it being like a way to try and verify where the cheese you’re buying comes from but embedding it in the rind seems a bit excessive when you could just use a tag with a private key signature on it that comes with the cheese.
Out of curiosity, do you know any dishes that use a sauce made of parmegianno regianno rind that someone who is a beginner-amateur (at best) at cooking could make? Or are these dishes quite complicated generally? I have always just thrown out the rind so finding out you can use it to make sauces and it’s the most flavourful part is life changing for me.

Very interesting, i didn’t know that.
Sorry for my hostility. I get upset when companies pull stunts like this. Monopoly rent on flavour is a sin.
