Wooden tableware is used for "service life", and it has to be replaced when it needs to be replaced. If you continue to use it beyond the service life, there will be health risks. The service life of wooden tableware is relatively short, and it is generally recommended that you replace it every 3 to 6 months. Here are some tips on when to replace wooden tableware:

1. When wooden tableware begins to show signs of wear or damage. This may include cracks, tears, and debris that reduce the functionality of the appliance. It is more important to note that the cracked wooden chopsticks are not easy to be cleaned. In the process of people picking food, food residues can easily hide in the cracks. In addition to the influence of temperature and humidity, once the food residues become moldy and we have not found them, there is a high probability that aflatoxin is hidden in them. This toxin is a factor that induces liver cancer, and everyone should avoid it. If you regularly find that your wooden tableware is broken or deformed, it may be time to consider replacing them. Also, if the wood feels stiff, dry, or greasy to the touch, it may be time for a new appliance.

2. If wooden tableware is no longer comfortable because of its size, shape, or grip.

3. If the wooden utensils smell bad or have a peculiar smell. If you find black spots on the surface of wooden tableware, it means that it has been moldy and should be replaced immediately. Moldy wooden tableware will breed aflatoxin, which is more harmful to the human body. Heating and cleaning cannot eliminate this bacteria, so it can only be replaced.

It's always important to replace wooden utensils regularly, especially when they start to show wear and tear. Wooden utensils are natural and will eventually deteriorate with use, so it's best to replace them as soon as possible.
