Remove stains on your cooking utensils or cutting boards with lemon
Whether you’ve stained your cutting board chopping berries or discolored a wooden spoon by leaving it in your homemade tomato sauce for too long, there’s a simple fix right there in your kitchen.
“Acid is a great way to degrade materials,” says Arthur Ruth, Vice President of Operations of Memphis Maids. “Lemon comes handy because it helps to eliminate the solids that hang on the stained surface and it leaves it spotless.”
Just don’t use lemon to remove stains from stone floors or counters, or the acid could degrade the porous material they’re made from.
