DO NOT USE COOKING OIL--MINERAL OIL IS WHAT IS RECOMMENDED FOR WOODEN CUTTING BOARDS. I WOULD IMAGINE IT WOULD BE THE SAME FOR ANYTHING WOODEN USED IN THE KITCHEN

The cooking oil can become rancid in time or perhaps harbor bacteria after a while. ? I'd be concerned about that. Always concerns me when it is recommended to oil a cutting board. Does it seal the wood thus preventing such contamination? Anybody know? Chefs out there.... reply.

I read somewhere that wood has anti-bacterial properties. If it was in bad shape to begin with, I might have just boiled it or put it in the dishwasher, but I'm sure what you did took care of it.

I soaked it in clorox water, let it air dry, then coated the wooden handle and base in cooking oil. Threw the box into the trash immediately.
Anything else I could have done?
