Right. So you don't eat the rind. However, it's an outstanding addition to many soups, where you simmer it in the soup, and the soup takes on some of the delicious umami flavor of the Parmigiano. You then remove the rind before serving.
What happens to the chip when we do that? Will it stay embedded in the rind after simmering for an hour or two? If not, will it pass through safely if I eat it?
- arbitrage 3y agoYou can eat the rind. Some people do. That's not typical, however. > The p-Chip micro-transponder is a grain of salt-sized silicon chip containing a unique identification code that is attached to the silicon substrate. It will probably be safe if it gets accidentally ingested.
- benoliver999 3y agoIf you go to Italy the airport scanners might think you're a wheel of cheese.

- mathogre 3y agoWould that be........bad PR?
- aruggirello 3y agoNo, since you wouldn't appear to be counterfeit. :)
- nickthegreek 3y agoPretty little chip and can withstand 500°C. https://p-chip.com/about/ https://p-chip.com/about/
- junon 3y ago1) Most consumer grade chips are rated up to 80c-110c. EDIT: Ah you weren't naming any random chip, that's the chip they're using. My b. 2) That doesn't say if the chip gets dislodged, whether or not it's big enough to notice before someone swallows it. A grain of salt probably isn't. Hopefully the materials are safe to ingest. Horrendously irresponsible practice by the manufacturer, IMO.

- zeitg3ist 3y agoThe rind can definitely be eaten, and it’s delicious. If you put it in soup like you said it becomes soft and chewy, but you can also grill it or eat it raw on its own (I do sometimes, after cleaning the surface with a knife). My grandma used to say it’s good for your teeth, which is probably not true.
- vinayan3 3y agoI hope that the grocery store who is splitting the wheel removes the rind area with the label. I don't like the idea of ingesting a eating a chip even if it's very very small.
- grumblepeet 3y agoAgreed. I’ve just eaten ragu following a recipe on YouTube that advised me to tuck the rind from the Parmesan into it before cooking the sauce for 3 hours. It completely broke down. Not fancying a chip in my pasta sauce.
- mathogre 3y agoI use parm rind (Parmigiano Reggiano rind) for a couple things. One is to make a parm broth for Fettuccine Alfredo. Another is when making a pomodoro sauce loaded with aromatics (garlic, red onion, fresh basil, etc). "Cheese buyers aren't going to eat this embedded label." Are you sure?
