Keep your kitchen running smoothly by replacing these six items on a regular basis.
Microplane Zester
Unfortunately, this trusty tool doesn’t stay sharp forever. If yours is worse for wear, it’s time for a replacement.
Vegetable Peeler
Just like your zester, a vegetable peeler can dull over time, so plan to replace yours often.
Sponges
Prevent the spread of bacteria and grime when cleaning by frequently discarding your sponges.
Cutting Board
Replace your cutting board annually, or whenever you begin to notice excessive damage or abrasions on the surface.
Wooden Spoons
Wooden spoons can split, crack and chip over the years. Hand wash them and don’t place them in standing liquids for long.
Garbage Disposal
If your kitchen starts to smell funky or you hear strange noises when your disposal is turned on or have to frequently reset it, it may be time to replace it.
