How is a microchip edible? Big as a sand grain? How does it work? How long has this tech existed? How many microchips have I eaten? Do they stop working if I eat them?

It's not edible. The chip is in the packaging. Chipping packaging is normal and the headline is funny but sensational

Now producers have been trialling the most modern of authentication methods – microtransponders about the size of a grain of salt inserted into the labels found on the rind of 120,000 wheels of parmigiano reggiano.

Edit or it might as well be edible no one knows since no ones eaten cheese with the packaging

into the labels found on the rind

The labels are directly on the rind of the cheese - not on a sticker or something.

Still in the rind. Chances of eating it unless you specifically want to eat it are nill

Lots of people throw the rind in stews and sauces. It adds umami. So now I gotta fish out the bay leaf and a microchip.
