My dear bro thought he was being smart (and lazy) by putting the wooden chopping block into the dishwasher. His rationale? To wash it and kill the germs since dishwashers use very hot water to clean the dishes.

Well, guess how it turned out in the end.....

DO NOT put your wooden chopping board into the dishwasher. Unless you're 100% sure that it is cut from one single piece of wood.

"Hmm.....blocks of wood for whacking people? Looks a little like a musical instrument. Hmm...."
