I always believed cooking at home meant I was protecting my family’s health. Fresh produce, home-prepared meals, and no dodgy takeaways.
But then I found out that the most ordinary tool in my kitchen — my chopping board — was filling our meals with invisible plastic.
The fact that shook me? The average person swallows 50 grams of microplastics every single year*. That’s like chewing through ten bank cards or two AA batteries annually.
And the main source in everyday kitchens? Plastic chopping boards.
Every slice across my old board released microscopic fragments into our food. They don’t just pass through — they stay in your gut, affect hormones, and can cause serious long-term health problems.
It was horrifying to realise my kitchen — the “heart of my home” — was the hidden danger I’d been overlooking.
That’s when I started searching for an alternative… and discovered Katori Titanium.
