ST poll: kitchen counter. If you make a sandwich or cut fruit or prepare anything. do you use the counter or a plate? or a paper towel

this is not a question is your counter dirty. Even if you just washed it - are you making the meal directly on it?

Responses:

it depends - plate or paper towel section or cutting board then one of the other two, depending on level of complexity. never counter. — nm - i.b.! Jun 25, 11:30
paper towel for sandwiches and then cutting boards. SM will make and cut stuff on the counter. Because he cleans it. - Pippy Jun 25, 11:04
paper towel you weirdos -- nm - hollywood big shot Jun 25, 10:34
Wood cutting board because we have some nice sharp knives and want to keep them that way -- nm - zeitgeist Jun 25, 10:02 2
- Yes. Never use glass or the counter. Unless you have a butcher block counter of course. I should sharpen my knives though. - sycor Jun 25, 10:14

If I'm cutting with a knife, then I use a cutting board. I don't normally cut my sandwiches so those are made on a paper towel for crumb management. -- nm - sycor Jun 25, 10:01
Cutting board. -- nm - MDH Jun 25, 09:54
always cutting board. I have maybe a dozen that are the same size (but different colors obvs) in a stack in the kitchen for this. -- nm - 🏳️‍🌈 mandy chem 🏳️‍🌈 Jun 25, 09:45
Plate. I’m the resident in this house who cleans the counter, and am often amused about how many crumbs I collect when it’s been a few days. -- nm - Landbeck Jun 25, 09:42
we use cutting boards -- nm - Andie Jun 25, 09:39
Plate or cutting board. Kind of in that order as I don't really cook that much -- nm - JD Jun 25, 09:36
Generally a plate but we also have a couple cutting boards we use most of the time. We have cats that do get on our island though I've never really - oblique Jun 25, 09:28
Since we have cats, I would -never- use the counter. -- nm - David Jun 25, 09:23 1
- Same. Cutting board, sometimes plate. -- nm - Beryllium Jun 25, 09:26
cutting board -- nm - Beaker 🍺 Jun 25, 09:21
I'm like Turd Ferguson. I'll use a cutting board for just about everything. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Jun 25, 09:18
We have a set of cutting boards always out and in a spot next to the sink for that purpose. That's to not damage the counter or stain it. -- nm - colin Jun 25, 09:16 1
- Yup. We have a quartz countertop that is allegedly indestructible...but for that cost, I ain't taking chances. -- nm - Turd Ferguson Jun 25, 09:17
I have a few cutting boards I use depending on how much I need to cut. -- nm - Krusty Jun 25, 09:15
No. I use a cutting board for fuckin everything. -- nm - Turd Ferguson Jun 25, 09:15
