Why plastic over wood cutting boards?

Plastic cutting boards are non-porous. What does this mean? Wood cutting boards are porous, allowing bacteria to seep into the wood. Not only bacteria, but stains and smells can also embed themselves into wood cutting boards. A plastic cutting board can be rendered clean and bacteria free with a simple wash of hot water and soap. In fact, the FDA mandates that all commercial food preparation be done using plastic cutting boards.

Plastic is cheaper than wood and weighs less. As a result, they are usually thinner allowing for easy storage. Plastic technology allows for some interesting design shapes, sizes and colors. You can now match your cutting board to your kitchen. Because they are cheaper, you can get multiple plastic cutting boards of different colors for different food type preparations. For example, you can have one color for raw chicken, one for vegetables and fruits and one for fish.

Plastic cutting boards are dishwasher safe. You cannot stick a wood cutting board into a dishwasher. You could easily destroy your cutting board. There is no maintenance in keeping plastic, but with wood, you would need to rub it down with mineral oil to properly seal and season the wood on a regular basis.

Cutouts can easily be added to the design to allow drippings or scraps to be moved easily off the board without picking it up. one other unique cutting board addition is the ability to add shapes to the design. You can get a plastic cutting board that has a built in funnel to easily move your chopped food to the pan.
