    You can pick machine washable and plastic or you can pick wood and not machine washable.

    There are other options out there like glass or composites like Corian. But those are very bad for your knives.

    I make wood cutting boards. I use both wood and plastic cutting boards.

    Wood is naturally antimicrobial. On the rare case where I feel the need to use something other than soap and water on a wood board I have a bottle of vinegar solution to spray it with. Never use bleach because it will eat away at the wood.

    I keep plastic around because sometimes I don’t want to have to hand wash the board. But I prefer wood for the weight and the custom sizes I have made.

    The obvious answer is to treat wood cutting boards as single-use and continually buy more from FauxPseudo after each meal.

      If I find out someone abused a board like that then I’d be obligated to put them on the no buy list. I get irked when I find out people use them as display pieces and don’t actually use them.

        Don’t laugh - you can buy bamboo cutting boards very cheaply and they grow back quickly.

        My brother was willing to try wooden cutting boards based on bamboo being cheap enough that in the worst case scenario they were disposable

          Hi all! We’d like to stop using our plastic cutting boards due to cutting little bits of plastic into our food. Unfortunately, the most obvious alternative, wooden cutting boards, are more of a pain to clean.

          I’d love suggestions on what I could use instead. I saw there’s a brand called Epicurean that uses some sort of other material that can be machine washed. Has anyone used them before?

          I’d especially love something made in Germany or in the EU, but I’m open to looking farther afield if necessary.

          Thank you!

          Marble stone cutting board, and a knife sharpener.

          Everyone is saying “but my knife will dull”, well it’s easier and faster to just sharpen it every time than it is to oil wooden boards constantly.

            I picked up a set of 10" x 10" tempered glass cutting boards and have been really happy with them. Dishwasher safe, non-porous, easy to handwash and easy to use. This was after years of using every other material. And no, my knives are fine.

              Use enough of them, flip the dirty side down, and you could redo your floors!

                People actually oil their boards? I do it like, once a year lmao

                Note, I’d love to get a nice marble board.

                  I use a plastic board for meat, and my wood for everything else. Sometimes I use the wood with meat too though.

                  I love that you make wooden boards, a dope craft 🙂 My favorite board was one I picked up at a farmers market someone made

                      If you put them on the dishwasher you have to keep oiling

                        Just use wood. One for meat, and one for everything else.
