Fair enough. So am I. But just for the heck of it, spend $3 on a
plastic board the size of your wooden one, and put it on top the next
time you cut up some raw chicken. As soon as you're done, put the plastic
board in the dishwasher. Then make a salad on the wooden board.

You might change your mind. There's a difference between being a
traditionalist and a Luddite.
