    Maybe I’m a picker eater, but I think I’d rather have an inauthentic product than eating a microchip.

      as other people pointed out, is a sticker on the outside, on the hard part.

      unless you are very hungry and have good teeth, you will not eat it.

      yet, since is applied on edible product, it needs to be edible.

        I know. There’s an answer above where I say that. Writing a jokey comment doesn’t mean you haven’t read it.

          Well then the right thing to do would be to edit your misinformation-spreading comment in this thread, don’t you think?

          I’m not reading ALL of your comments

            Haha no. Cause I read the article before I posted my comment. I’m not spreading misinformation.

            The misinformation is in the title of the article. Report the article instead of going after someone who read it, and is obviously not talking about the article seriously.

            It’s funny though when someone says read the article doesn’t read the one of the top tree of comments they are replying to where I explicitly say it’s a non issue 10 hours before your comment.

            Maybe you want to edit your comment.

              We are definitely not sorting comments by the same criterion, then.

              Your other comment was nowhere to be seen 😉
