How I Cut 50 Grams of Plastic Out of My Family’s Diet With One Under-£60 Kitchen Upgrade)

| By Emma Levine
5/5 - 3,892 Ratings

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 Katuchef Titanium.

The Hidden Dangers of Plastic Chopping Boards

I’d been happily using plastic boards for years, completely unaware of the damage they were doing. But here’s the reality:

  • Every groove from a knife = microplastic shavings in your food.
  • Those particles build up in the body, disrupting hormones and inflaming your digestive system.
  • Deep scratches create a breeding ground for bacteria that washing up simply can’t remove.

A study revealed that chopping vegetables on a plastic board can release between 1,500 and 7,500 plastic particles per use**. Over a year, that’s roughly 50 grams of plastic — the same as ten credit cards.

And it’s not just unpleasant to think about:

  • Hormone disruption – plastics carry chemicals like BPA and phthalates.
  • Gut issues – microplastics contribute to inflammation and fatigue.
  • Serious illness – one 2023 study linked microplastics to higher risks of stroke and heart disease.

Looking at my own scratched-up board, it suddenly made sense. The gut discomfort I’d been dealing with wasn’t “just stress” — it could have been the plastic in my food all along.

That’s when I found the Katuchef Titanium Chopping Board.

The Kitchen Change I Never Knew I Needed

I’ll be honest, at first I thought — a chopping board is just a chopping board.

But the moment Katuchef arrived, I realised it was completely different.

It looked sleek and modern, felt surprisingly lightweight for how tough it was, and had a perfectly smooth surface that didn’t absorb smells or stains.

Once I started using it, the benefits became obvious:

  • No microplastics. Pure titanium never sheds.
  • Naturally hygienic. Non-porous and resistant to bacteria.
  • Knife-friendly. Protects your blades from dulling.
  • Chemical-free. Zero BPA, phthalates, or toxic coatings.
  • Durable. One board that outlasts a drawer full of cheap ones.

For the first time in years, I felt I could chop and cook without worrying about what else was ending up on our plates.

My Kitchen, Transformed

After just a few weeks, the difference has been huge:

  • Plastic-free cooking. That’s 50 grams less plastic entering my family’s bodies each year.
  • Cleaner prep. No grooves, no germs, no hidden bacteria.
  • One-time purchase. I no longer need to replace boards every 6–12 months.
  • No lingering smells. Fish, onions, garlic — gone after a quick rinse.
  • Sharper knives. My blades stay in great condition.
  • Peace of mind. No hidden toxins, no hormone disruptors.
  • Eco-friendly. One board = less waste in landfill.

It might sound dramatic, but this small swap has genuinely changed how safe I feel in my own kitchen.
