We're quite taken with these new cutting boards from Architec. They're made in the U.S. of 100% recycled materials, a combination of recycled plastic and processed flax that has a unique and very appealing texture and appearance. The super-rugged 12" x 16" boards are 1/2" thick, perfectly safe for your fine knives, plus they feel great and look really cool. Maybe the best part is they're dishwasher safe for easy care and no worries about contamination. Architec even includes a shipping label, so if you ever tire of your board, you can send it back to be recycled into another one. What's not to like?
