Hi! I'm Tiffany. When I'm not chasing my son around for diaper changes, convincing my daughter not to wear goggles to bed, or trying to get unidentified stains out of my kids' clothes, I work in the marketing department at Clorox.

Day 6: Sayonara, Bacterial-laden Cutting Boards
After tackling Max’s high chair and other kitchen surfaces yesterday, I’m inspired to tackle that harborer of bacteria that lives in my kitchen … the dreaded cutting board.
I have both plastic and wooden boards, and I have to admit that because I can’t put my wood boards into my dishwasher, I never feel like they are “truly” clean. As a result, I have multiple cutting boards: each for different uses — raw meats, fruits and veggies, baking, etc. I recognize that I must have some sort of cutting board neuroses, so today I decided to make sure my cutting boards were super clean by saying “Adios” to any bacteria living on my cutting boards.
I mixed 3 Tbsp of Clorox® Regular-Bleach with a gallon of water and poured that sanitizing solution of bleach goodness over my cutting board! Bacteria, you are no longer invited to dinner! I let the cutting board stand for 2 minutes and then I rinsed again with a 1 tbsp of Clorox® Regular-Bleach diluted in another gallon of water. I didn’t rinse the board this time. I just let it air dry.
Bon Appétit!

I love using Clorox in my house. I use it to disinfect my countertops in a spray bottle (diluted), and everywhere else around my house. Nothing smells quite as good as freshly washed clean sheets!

What a great idea. I've always used Clorox to clean my sinks but I never realized I could use it on my cutting boards too. Thanks.

Sanitizing cutting boards with Clorox Bleach is a great idea! The other thing I use Clorox for in the kitchen is for bleaching my coffee cups (which tend to look stained). Clorox is the only bleach I buy (probably because it's what my Mother used--tried and true) Thanks for the giveaway.

I am a bleach person. I love to clean with bleach. I feel safe using it to kill germs. My kitchen is cleaned if not daily every other. I clean cutting boards with it too............

It's not clean unless it's Clorox Clean. There is nothing like entering the house after I cleaned, the smell is so welcoming, it says," Enter, there are no germs about!"
