Color Coded Cutting Boards for Safety in the Kitchen

Filed in archive Around The Kitchen on April 7, 2007

One of the best ways to avoid cross-contamination in the kitchen is to have a set of color-coded cutting boards. Each board is designated for a particular type of food. Manufacturers have made it easy by putting together colors that do the remembering for you, i.e., red = meats, blue = fish (sea), green = veggies, and so on. And there's a wide range of choices for every budget. For instance, this set from Amazon is only $3.99:

This one is around $12:

If you've got the resources, you might want to go with this 6-color set, stand included, from rubbermaid:

Whichever one you choose, you're one step closer to a healthier, safer kitchen.
