How exactly does this "foil counterfeiters"? Is every buyer supposed to scan the chip and verify? Does that scale?

  My guess is that this is so e.g. US CBP can scan imported wheels that purport to be legitimate, and (eventually) reject counterfeits.

  One chip per wheel.. I think this is for further up the supply chain. Some importer claims to have a great deal on a specific cheese, is it the real deal? Personally, I'm fine with eating a Parmesan that says it's a slightly different Parmesan.

    If I pay the genuine price, then I want the genuine cheese.

    According to Alberto Grandi, Wisconsin Parmesan is closer to the real stuff than modern Italian Parmesan.
