This sounds unbelievably risky. I would be very careful if i were you

Imagine walking through 20 sharp edged metal tape measures at once. What a fun experience

It’s unlikely to cause any kind of large black market. In the UK, energy drinks have been restricted to 16+ for a few years now. People don’t mind off brand vapes or cigarettes (for some reason), but people absolutely care about the brand of energy drink they are buying. Kids especially, I imagine most only buy them to look cool, and if no one knows you are drinking a “cool” energy drink then why bother?

PIGS do work but they also have 7 hour lunchtime and siesta and also an 8 hour designated chill time then 9 hours for sleeping

No you’re good. I can see it being like a way to try and verify where the cheese you’re buying comes from but embedding it in the rind seems a bit excessive when you could just use a tag with a private key signature on it that comes with the cheese.

Out of curiosity, do you know any dishes that use a sauce made of parmegianno regianno rind that someone who is a beginner-amateur (at best) at cooking could make? Or are these dishes quite complicated generally? I have always just thrown out the rind so finding out you can use it to make sauces and it’s the most flavourful part is life changing for me.

Very interesting, i didn’t know that.

The chip is in the rind which you don’t eat. And the chip is food safe anyway, if someone was to eat the rind.

I mean, the woman who had the toy story 2 backup did get fired like 25 years later. That is a quarter of a century.
