Do you use bamboo board?

Yes. The referral ID was part of the URL. Often they try and obscure
it by hiding it behind a tinyurl so it's not as obvious.

When you visit the site the first time, a cookie with their referral
ID gets put on your computer and any time you order from the site they
get a kickback for it.

The most simple kind of [disguised] spam that's been going on for

I have been using bamboo boards for several years. I like them. I scrub
them with soap and hot water. No one here has gotten sick from the
cutting boards.

I don't think they mess up knives any more than a regular wooden board does.

The subject line was a question... Do you use...?

I don't use them either. I'm addicted to silicone sheets. Cheap and
plentiful, so when they get scarred up they get tossed or repurposed.

I use those sheets in the motorhome. Easy to store and lightweight.

Tell her that the wet paper towel trick works! If she's cutting
something and the mat moves around too much, put a well rung out wet
paper towel between the mat and work surface... then it stays in one
place.

I just use paper plates over the pullout cutting board built into my
kitchen. These work for most things. If I am doing a lot of juicy things
like tomatoes, I might have to use a second one because it will get soggy
and I might cut through it. I just figure this is a very safe way to do it.
I throw the plate away so no chance of cross contamination.

I also got myself some salad scissors. So if I am chopping things for
salad, I can usually do them right in the bowl. Of course some things are
too large and may need to be cut smaller before I put them in the bowl.

You might want to consider getting a poly cutting board to put under
the plastic sheet/mat (aka: flexible cutting board). They come in all
sizes and colors. I have one that fits the entire depth of the
counter 18" x 24" x 1/2" and I have an even larger one that I use on
the peninsula. http://www.wesellcoffee.com/page10.html

That trick works well when you're using a hand mixer, too. Ditto
sitting it on a kitchen towel.

Om. I said to put it *under* the poly mat, not to use it alone.
It'll be easier on your knife edges.

Bamboo is not floppy. It's one of the strongest woods there is. It's also
a sustainable wood since it grows back very quickly. It's often used as
flooring. I think the OP was talking about boards used for serving (the
word "picnic" was mentioned), not cutting boards. Having said that, I don't
own one. If I ever need a new cutting board I'll probably buy bamboo. As
it is, I've only just heard good things about bamboo boards. (My picnic set
contains a plastic board for fruit and cheeses.)

Bamboo cutting boards are actually plastic... you'll be cutting on the
resin that bonds the bamboo into a laminate... the bamboo is only
there for decorative purposes and to fill the volume to save on
resin... same with bamboo flooring. Bamboo is not wood, it's grass.

We weren't talking about bamboo. We were talking about silicone
sheets/silpat mats. It's called thread drift.

Lily's intended use for picnics was not clear. I always need
something to cut on for picnics too. Of course there are bamboo
"cutting" boards that are pretty enough to be used as a serving tray,
but why discuss serving utensils here? She could use a paper plate
for that purpose at a picnic.
