Had some lengths of oak worktop and I intend to cut them into chopping
board sizes, they are untreated, what would be the best to seal them

cheers


Just keep them for decoration and chop your food on a proper plastic
chopping board that you can actually wash


I recall some research from several years ago that wooden chopping boards
actually kept bacteria in check to a much greater degree than plastic ones.
