Kill Bacteria On Cutting Boards

Real Simple

Cutting boards accumulate bacteria we can’t see, especially if used for several products like chicken, beef, pork, and veggies. Simply rinsing it in warm water will not kill all the bacteria. Lemon juice has antibacterial properties that will help get rid of bacteria and other microbes. Coat the surface with lemon juice, let it sit for about 10 minutes. Then, rinse with hot water and dry it well. Clean and smelling fresh, no problem. You can also do this with wooden utensils, just make sure you dry it properly.
