Default Laminate flooring as kitchen countertop

There are patterns that resemble butcher-block and would probably look nice.

I figure if the "engineered" (fake wood) stuff is built to stand up to the
abuse of being on a floor, it could probably take ordinary kitchen
conditions.

Anyway, I've got some left over from a flooring project and thought I would
give it a go -- unless, of course, somebody can come up with a discouraging
word other than "That's the most f***ed up idea I EVER heard!"


I have seen laminate that got wet do very poorly.
Newer stuff may be OK.
