Back to the drawing board!

Even so, in order for you to have a germ-free plastic cutting board, it’s better to use different cutting boards for different types of food. You can choose various sizes, colors for various foods, the most important thing would be though to use at least a dedicated one for the raw meat.

Keep your cutting board in fresh air; it will be handy when it comes to having a hygienic plastic cutting board.
