I'm trying to find information on which woods are safe to make
kitchen utensils out of & which woods should be avoided.
I tried google and didn't have very good luck. Any help would be
greatly appreciated. TIA



I'd imagine most any common hardwood would be "safe". Hard to imagine
a wood would be "unsafe"... except maybe splinters ;-)


avoid Yew it will make you ill , teak will leach oils which will taint
anything you use them on
