How do I keep my cutting boards free of bacteria?

Cutting Boards Are Safety Products, Too

But only if you keep them clean! Choose a smooth, durable and nonabsorbent surface. Plastic is less porous than wood, making it less likely to harbor bacteria, and easier to clean. Wash your board with hot soapy water, and scrub brush to remove food and dirt particles. After washing it, sanitize your board in the dishwasher or by rinsing it in dilute chlorine bleach solution of 1-teaspoon bleach to 1-gallon water.
