Set of three Norpo cutting sheets for $5.77 with free Prime shipping


I was in the throes of a major cutting board crisis.  Yes, I know.  I can feel your symp/empathy.  Tragic.

Here's the story.  I hate washing dishes by hand and I really hate hand-washing messy, smelly, germy, cutting boards on which I just sliced meat or fish.  I feel like they just never really get clean, and I don't like using bleach (as many recommend) on surfaces that will hold food.  I love the idea of putting cutting boards in the dishwasher and running the super-heated "sanitize" cycle to completely disinfect them.

Unfortunately, when you put a wooden cutting board through a few of those cycles, you wind up with a bunch of dried out, warped, split, broken cutting boards.  Guilty.  I went through two large, pricey wooden cutting boards like this.

I've since replaced them with beautiful bamboo cutting boards that I wash by hand, but I never feel like they are really clean after I slice up a whole salmon on one, or carve up a roast.  Hand-washing just doesn't do it for me, but I don't want to destroy these cutting boards in the dishwasher as well.

Then I found this Norpro set of three acrylic cutting sheets on Amazon.  I didn't think I would like chopping on a non-wooden cutting surface, but I love these.  They come in different colors (hello meat, fish, and produce), and best of all, are dishwasher safe!   They are large (14" x 9 1/2") and they are flexible, so you can funnel whatever you are cutting to wherever you want it to go.  I've now re-assigned two of my bamboo cutting boards to bread/challah boards and gifted one away.  I love these new acrylic cutting sheets.

Best of all, the Norpro set of cutting sheets is $5.77 (for all three!) with free Prime or SuperSaver shipping.  I've seen similar sets in stores for three times as much.

If you need cutting sheets, snag these at $5.77 before Amazon does one of their sneaky price kicks.
