Undercut Bamboo Cutting Board, Medium
A plastic-free prep surface with unusually complete construction disclosure. Hand wash and oil it and it will outlast any plastic board, which sheds particles into food by design.
Laminated bamboo with the glue actually disclosed: water based, food grade, no formaldehyde, and no lacquer coat, just food-safe oil. This is the disclosure every wood board should ship with.
