as i said in my earlier post, if you want to make sure your
cutting boards/woodenware are as free of bacterial or viral

it has been shown in lab experiments that microcuts & scratches on
plastic boards can & do harbor more bacteria than wooden boards.

where do the glass family of cutting boards rate in these studies?
