I recently read a report on a study which came to the conclusion
that wood cutting boards were better than plastic cutting boards.
Studies using salmonella and other harmful bacteria showed that
when the bacteria was left on wood boards overnight, the bacteria would
die.  When the same bacteria was left on plastic boards overnight, the
bacteria counts would increase.

A news report was recently posted to one of the clarinet groups.  The
researcher's involved couldn't find any studies which claimed plastic
to be better than wood.  It all appears to be word of mouth, marketing
propaganda.

Figures,
