yes. Although the food might pick up hints of "pine" flavors,

I would say no to pine because it's too soft and the fiber strands will swell when washed and will pull off and get into the food.

Well, yeah. But it would still "work". Maybe not as well as some
other board, but "tastes is tastes". B-)
