There's another neat material that cutting boards are made of, but they don't
come with a colander. They are made by Epicurean and have either a wood tone or
a black color. They are made of some kind of wood composite and are thinner and
lighter than most other cutting boards. The wood tone ones look rather nice to
me, sort of like wood.

I love the one I got, and I have quite a few other cutting boards made of wood
or plastic. This one is the best of the lot. It does have one problem when it is
first used: it has a really funky odor when it is wet. This problem goes away
with a few washings (I wash mine by hand).

Here's what Amazon sells made of this material:

Got my curiousity up on this. I googled and found this about the
material.

Who woulda thunk it? ;-)
Same material for skateboard ramps and cutting boards!

I found a few web sites from the manufacturer.

http://www.richlite.com/ - the main one

http://www.skatelite.com/home.html - for the skateboard ramp material
http://www.epicureancs.com/- for the cutting boards

They also list several other applications from the main page.

I first saw the cutting boards a few years ago and then finally decided to buy
one. I'm glad I did.
