We've been using bamboo cutlery & cooking utensils for ages here in Japan. It's nothing new! Bamboo is very flexible yet extremely tough and infinitely adaptable. It's about time westerners opened their eyes to the many uses of bamboo. And it doesn't need to be "certified organic" either! What’s with the surprise over bamboo?

So lovely, they look like they'd be really comfy to hold & use. I like even more that they're produced from certified-organic bamboo. marvellous. I love bamboo & wood cutlery & cooking utensils. I use it as much as possible. As long as wood is allowed to dry out completely after being washed in hot water (& perhaps oiled once in a while to stop them from cracking), it's a _very_ hygenic material to use (more hygenic than plastic, believe it or not, especially when it comes to chopping boards). It's been used for generations prior to plastic cooking & chopping utensils. These are GREAT! So lovely, they look like they’d be really comfy to hold & use.

I've always be warned to be weary of bacteria in those. They find a nice comfy nesting place in porous materials like woods.
