Do you know that wooden cutting boards are safer to use than plastic?
You may say that is not true because it’s easier to clean a plastic board. With plastic boards, you just toss them in the dishwasher while with wooden boards, you have to worry about getting them to dry.
However, some research found that after contaminating a wooden board many of the bacteria on the board had died. On the other hand, none of the bacteria died on plastic, instead, their numbers increased. Even washing by hand or dishwasher wouldn’t completely get rid of the bacteria caught in knife grooves.
Anyways this post is not about comparing cutting boards. The link below will show you how to make a wooden cutting board out of a piece of a tree trunk. Enjoy!
