Uh, you know you're supposed to wash it after using raw meat on it, right?
@shadowedcross @Kowowow
and you can wash it after using it for dog treats. so weird that putting dog treats on it would be disturbing.
I also have different cutting boards for meat and raw things. My wood cutting board isn't for meat.
Wood cutting boards are safer to use with meat than plastic ones
Probably, but I have just the one wood one. I also don't put the wood one in the dishwasher to sterilize etc, and the more important thing is keeping them separate. I'll probably get a wood one for meat at some point.
Edit: bought more wood ones today even.
Seriously! Wood is for bread, green is for fruits and veg, red is for land based meat, white is for fish. Glass is for the bin.
Wooden cutting boards are naturally antibacterial because of the desiccating nature of wood.
Wash it, salt it if you’re worried, but don’t use fucking plastic
Glass?? They make GLASS cutting boards?!
Yes, but don't use them because they dull your knives very quickly because there's no give to them when your knife makes contact with the board like with wood. So all of the force you hit the board with goes right back into the knife.
They do, though they damage knives.
