This colorful set of chopping mats is ideal for various food preparation tasks and conveniently snap together for easy storage. Each mat has a double-sided, knife-friendly cutting surface and is color-coded, making it easier to keep specific mats for specific tasks. Their flexibility means that they can be bent to direct chopped food into a pan or food waste into a trash can. The snap-together hole is designed to allow the mats to be joined by simply pushing together and it also provides a hanging point. Dishwasher safe. Please note: The knife-friendly surfaces of these mats are designed to mark slightly during use.
