What do you use?

Wooden cutting boards are safe as long as you oil regularly. Long grain or edge grain is suited more for cutting veggies and fruits as you're cutting across the wood fibers. End grain is the best as your cutting down into the wood fibers which allows for the fibers to push whatever goes into them back outwards as you oil the board. There are some vids you can find online that explain this better with graphics.
You'll pay more for end grain because it's harder to make and it's the most forgiving on your cutlery.

Nothing says class and style like a marble cutting board.

Looks like a Qbert gameboard for germs.

That's a nice looking board and I have made some with that same edge due to my router bits being too low. Some I sand off, some I don't.
But, you can run end grain boards through your planer. I do it all the time. You just have take skinny passes and plan on trimming off some of the board along the edges. You can glue sacrificial boards to your cutting board and simply cut them off after planing.

I'm surprised to hear this because I have seen studies that said wood was safer than plastic boards because there was something in the wood that actually killed the bacteria rather quickly. Plastic boards, like wood, can harbor bacteria if they are not cleaned properly too. This is not exclusive to wood.

I have a very expensive purple and gold cutting board that I could be persuaded to sell if the price is right

Just go get married. You'll receive about 9 cutting boards, and you won't have to ask for any of them.

You want a boos but don't want to pay for it? You could always just steal one.

I bought this Boos on amazon warehouse deals. It's a great cutting board, use the wood for everything, and then throw on a plastic liner for the raw meat.
I agree with what the other poster said about the size relative to your sink. Mine is a little too big to submerge in the sink.

how thick should it be and why does it matter if its thicker? does that prevent it from slipping?
Posted on 3/18/16 at 12:06 pm to dallastiger55
The thicker boards are less likely to bow, twist, cup, etc. It's things the wood does naturally due to temperature and humidity.
