Question from Amy
I got careless and let the underside of my big expensive cutting board get wet, and stay wet without checking it. Today I found a black mold spot 2″ x 4″. I don’t know what to do. I tried peroxide (one treatment) and ultraviolet lamp (grow-light-one treatment), and sandpaper to remove the spot (no effect). Is there a way to kill the spores and remove the black spot and still be able to use that side for cutting food, or do I have to just kill the spores and give up on that side? Please help.
Debra’s Answer
I’ve never removed a mold spot from a cutting board. Readers, any experience with this?
