Who wants to eat a microchip?
It’s in the wrapper not the cheese silly
Oh. Well then, nevermind!
Where in the article did it mention that the counterfeit versions are better than the originals? I didn't see a comparison of quality at all (maybe I missed it?).
I think it's more than the counterfeit versions have gotten so good and/or cheap that the genuine manufacturers feel the need to compete by placing microchips in their cheese rather than improve their own or bring down the price.
You're talking about market economics on a site full of tankies.
