(Food-Beverage-News.Com, July 23, 2015 ) Nashville, TN -- Any cuts or crevices in a wood cutting board are a warning that the board should be thrown out and replaced. According to the Home Food Safety site online, any cutting board that features marks of any depth is a breeding ground for bacteria – bacteria that can lead to instances or outbreaks of food poisoning.
The Imperial Kitchen Collection Company has answered the bacterial issues that can result from using wood cutting boards in the kitchen. The firm features a 4-piece colorized food-grade plastic cutting mat set on its Amazon.com website.
The resilient and vibrant boards come in the colors of red, blue, green and yellow – all meant to be used separately for fish, meat, breads and vegetables. The Home Food Safety site says that ready-to-eat foods and meats should be separated during meal preparation in order to avoid bacterial contamination. Therefore, cutting boards should be used for designated foods separately.
For example, a cutting board used to prepare fish should not be used for preparing the bread for sandwiches. That is because the resulting liquids can result in the transfer of harmful bacteria. According to the Home Food Safety site, foods that are prepared and have been prepared should be separated on both cutting mats and plates to avoid any resulting sickness.
Research shows that it is easier for food preparers to make cuts or nicks in wood than it is for them to penetrate durable plastic. That is why the Imperial Kitchen Collection Company stands behind its product with a solid money-back guarantee. The company's product line also includes an 8-piece stainless steel knife set, specifically designed, according to the company, with the modern cook in mind.
