Cutting Boards, Chapel Hill, NC

Wood cutting boards are safer to use than synthetic plastic ones, and they look nicer, too.

If you have been among those who changed to plastic cutting boards because you thought you were doing the right thing for sanitary reasons, but you have always missed the beauty of wooden ones, the good news is that wooden cutting boards can actually be a better choice. A study conducted by Dr. Dean O. Cliver at the University of Wisconsin found that wooden cutting boards outperformed plastic when tested for bacteria that produced food poisoning symptoms. In fact, Dr. Cliver showed that you are twice as likely to contract salmonellosis from a synthetic plastic cutting board.
