White plastic cutting boards are kitchen essentials for most households. They are lightweight, durable, and perfect for slicing vegetables, meats, and more. However, one of the biggest downsides to these boards is how quickly they can stain and pick up odors.
Over time, even regular washing may not be enough to keep them looking pristine. But don’t worry—I’ve got a cleaning hack from my ma that requires minimal effort and works wonders on dirty white plastic cutting boards. Here’s how you can do it too!
Why White Plastic Cutting Boards Get Dirty
