Hello my Foodie Friends. There’s not a lot to say about something as simple as a cutting board other than it’s a must-have in every kitchen. But what if we’re looking at this the wrong way? Sure, the cutting board is plain and simple but it doesn’t have to be. There are many quirky designs that show us how to embrace the fun side of this elementary accessory and how to improve its functionality. Cutting boards definitely say a lot about their owners. From the tradition of heirloom butcher’s blocks to the practicality of lightweight modern designs, it feels like this indispensable kitchen tool is a strong form of expression in its own right. Also, if you have limited kitchen space, it’s often easy to give up on cooking — especially if you don’t have room for the tools and gadgets that make cooking easy and enjoyable.

This handy kitchen gadget is a folding cutting board that makes it easy to go from countertop to cooking pan with one swift motion. Simply squeeze the handle to turn it into a chute.
