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!
