   I think it has to do with the unique pattern of lentils. The seller sends the picture before shipping.

     The glowie fears the nutritious anti-tamper packaging.

     Yea, putting lentils in a vacuum bag -> Easy
     Putting lentils in a vacuum bag in EXACTLY the same pattern shown in the picture -> Impossible
     
     It's a beautiful little trapdoor function where anyone can verify but no one can forge.

I hear lentils and vacuum and I'm just imagining some freeze dried prepped using their storage as cryptography and now I'm intrigued.

     Say I want to send Hoss an electronic device
     We're both worried you're gonna hack it while it's in the mail
     I put it in a bag, then put that bag into the middle of a vacuum bag full of mixed lentils like below.
     I send Hoss a photo of the bag after it's sealed, like below.
     You can open the bag to hack the device, but Hoss will know you have been in there because what he receives doesn't look like the picture of what I sent.
     Putting it back *perfectly* so he doesn't know you've been in there is literally impossible.

     Every other silver bar I have is serialized, people have a problem with that?

     Yeah, there's a ton of applications for this too. That's why I commented that the goldback people should have painted glitter on their goldbacks, because then you can scan them and check that they're authentic (they have to be serial numbered and some people will hate this)...

     Well, silver bars aren't likely to be used as money, serializing money allows people to run scanners which de-anonymize you, but we've kind of crossed that bridge already...
     
     Well, you got me curious enough to look it up and apparently goldbacks are serialized already. So there's no reason they shouldn't be using a splotch of random glitter somewhere on the note which is nearly impossible to duplicate...

They have teller terminals that basically dispense coin and cash like an atm but specifically for tellers and those do, but not everyone uses those.

     Well, you can pretty much bet that an ATM has a log of every bill it gave you and every bill you gave it.
     
     Likewise, in a bank robbery, any sane bank can re-count their money after the robbery and deduce exactly what bills were stolen.
     
     Shop keepers don't generally scan their bills at all, but when they take their bills to the bank, the way I've seen it done, they have to shove them all through the ATM, so again, the bank has a record of where the bills ended up.
     
     What I don't know is whether they're being required to share that data with the government, but if I were to take a wild guess, I'd say they are.

     How well does that actually work in practice? I've only ever heard of serials on money being logged for shit like the DB Cooper case, and all that'd tell you is at some point the stolen bill entered circulation, which I guess could give you a general area for where it was spent.

     I figured at some point when a stolen bill goes through a machine at a bank it'll get flagged if it was specifically logged in whatever federal database they store that stuff in, which I suppose would make it harder to spend on sizable purchases without it being able to be tracked back to you. You'd probably have to take it out of the country and spend it internationally where it's likely to circulate in cash economies for longer and obfuscate the origin point.

     With modern technology the ol' non-sequential bills demand likely doesn't even work anymore since they can run it all through a cash machine to automate the logging near instantly.

     There should be a "goldback authenticity app" for your phone then, which scans it and verifies that.
     
     Because just being able to check it at their factory doesn't really do anyone any good if someone can still make a forgery that 99% of the public can't tell the difference...
