Parmigiano Reggiano Consortium (PRC), the association that oversees production of the cheese, says it has been putting microchips in its product as part of a technological trial which would allow consumers to trace parmesan cheese back to its place of origin

Now go back to the article you read and look at the photos too. Labels are not stuck on the cheese, but are printed on it.

I have gone and looked at it again. Now it's your turn to look and read the caption under the picture of the cheese wheels. I'll save you some trouble here:

A storage area for Parmesan cheese wheels is pictured at storehouse shelf at 4 Madonne Caseificio dell'Emilia dairy cooperative in Modena, Italy, February 16 2016.

I'm quite sure a 7 year old picture of some cheese wheels is not going to depict a practice that just recently started up. The picture could be a stock photo as well making it less relevant to the actual article beyond being too old anyway.

How deep do the chips go? What material are they made from, graphene? Could they become dislodged while the cheese is cut and end up in the "eating part"?

Conjecture on your part caused by missing the important detail that the picture is not timely or accurate to the content of the article. This is exactly the mechanism I mentioned in my previous comment about how people want to be afraid and will invent reasons to justify their paranoia. Graphene is so misunderstood by the average person that it's a perfect scary material to invoke every time their desire to be afraid rears its ugly head. Graphene exists in nature and is among the most common natural forms of carbon to be found, but don't let that inconvenient fact get in the way of fearing it. You've lived with it your entire life so it's not as bad as you think.

I don't appreciate kikes putting electronics in my food.

Well until someone can prove and repeatedly prove this is actually happening, this statement is just more fear and conjecture. I hate the jews as much as anyone who has been enslaved by them and their evil deeds, but I will NOT live in fear and give them powers over me that they have no hand in simply because I think they are doing it. That's the self imprisonment I spoke of. Don't give them credit for things they cannot do because they will exploit your fear and use it to control you. They know how to do that extremely well so don't give them opportunity to get deeper inside your psyche.

Here is the article that shows where the chip is https://www.livemint.com/news/next-time-you-buy-parmesan-watch-out-for-the-microchip-11692266994829.html

Parmigiano wheels at the beginning of the aging process. The casein label where the p-Chip is inserted is visible on top.

The caption on the photo still says that the label, which is made of casein (a milk protein), is where the chip is inserted. The cheese does not contain the single chip much less many chips spread throughout the cheese. I'm not worried about that.

RFID/NFC chip labels have been used in many products over the years. I've had quite a few of these RFID labels fall out of books at the bookstore because they often just stick them in there between some pages. Sometimes they are stuck to the inside of the back cover though. It's nothing new and such "tracking" is not any different than what all the package carriers do except that the package carrier has your name, your address and the information about who shipped the package to you. When they deliver your package, they get a GPS location of your address, often take a picture of the package on your doorstep and even walk onto your property to deliver it. Wouldn't that be much more concerning than a label on some cheese that never actually makes it into your possession?
