Zeitungsleser in ganz Amerika waren besorgt, als Jack London ankündigte, mit einem Segelboot um die Welt reisen zu wollen - und Monate später vor allem amüsiert: Denn das Boot, das der Autor sich eigens bauen ließ, wurde und wurde nicht fertig, verschlang Unsummen von Geld und wurde bald zum Gespött der Nation. Jack London ließ sich nicht beirren. Im April 1907 stieß die Snark endlich in See und verließ San Francisco mit Kurs auf Hawaii. Doch bereits kurz nach dem Auslaufen setzten sich die Pannen fort: Der Schiffsmotor erwies sich als unbrauchbar, die Inneneinrichtung fiel auseinander, der Schiffs­koch konnte nicht kochen, niemand an Bord beherrschte die Navigation und der Hilfsnavigator glaubte fest daran, dass das Schiff im Inneren einer hohlen Erdkugel segelte. Keine Frage: Die Reise war ein Debakel. Und trotzdem verbrachte Jack Lon­don an Bord der Snark, in Gesellschaft seiner über alles geliebten Frau Char­mian, die wohl glücklichste Zeit seines Lebens. Dies zeigt auch sein Bericht über die Reise, der selbstironisch, unterhaltsam und ohne Aussparung der peinlichen Details von allen Heldentaten, Malheurs und Abenteuern erzählt: von der katastrophalen Überfahrt nach Honolulu, einem Besuch der Leprakolonie auf Molokai, ersten Erfahrungen mit dem Surfsport, von Begegnungen mit exzentrischen Einsiedlern, gefährlichen Riesenkakerlaken und von dem endlosen Warten auf einen Fliegenden Fisch. Voller Leben und Komik ist diese Geschichte eines grandiosen Scheiterns, in welcher Jack London mit Inbrunst einer einzigen Maxime folgte, die da hieß: »I like«.

Ignore the bad reviews, read mine!
Pictures don’t make you think much, but in-person these are beautiful and well made. I’ve been trying to replace everything with cleaner safer alternatives. Honestly I love everything this brand offers and stands for! Some things to think about when you see other peoples negative reviews. Since these cutting boards are all around safe and clean with no toxic coating’s that most have to make them last longer, they do require more maintenance, when people don’t follow that maintenance you get a warped or cracked board. Also they are not meant to last as long as your plastic one from Walmart, they should be replaced more often. Luckily for a pack of 3, and I’ll say again that are TRULY non toxic, they are super reasonably priced! For what they offer I would even pay more for these. They do also come with instructions on how to care for them! So if you are the type of person to leave things dirty, or wet in the sink, these are probably not for you. For anyone who doesn’t mind taking the extra minute these are a must (literally a quick wipe, rinse and hand dry, it’s nothing). Gives me a breathe of fresh air to know I’m using safe, and clean products.

Cutting boards will splinter
A lot of the reviews that are saying these wooden boards splinter are true. I was excited to find some nontoxic wooden cutting boards for such a great price. Upon arrival, they seemed pretty decent quality when I pulled them out of the package. I proceeded to use the large one so I gave it a quick rinse with warm water and was taken back by fumes coming off the cutting board and then wiped it down with a white paper towel and my paper towel was brown. I was a little discouraged, but decided to give it a better rinse with a soap, free brush. At that point once I dried it off whatever coding was on it came off and it was rough and splinters everywhere. Definitely a little upset that the splinters could’ve ended up in our food. These are not good quality non-toxic cutting boards I would rather spend a little extra money on a quality board that is not going to sprinter Wood shavings into my food.

Very good, just be sure not to leave in water
Overall, this is a very good product as my wife and I are moving towards non-toxic kitchen materials. My only advice is to make sure to not leave this submerged in water otherwise mold will easily form.

Truly non-toxic but a little rough and uneven
I’m very impressed with the packaging of this. When I first opened the box I was shocked that there was a plastic wrapping around the boards when they promised to be non toxic but then I saw the sticker that the wrapping was not plastic and I was very happy. The boards themselves are pretty nice and a good thickness but the only thing is I feel like the board is a little rough and parts of the board come up and are not smooth.

Not Durable…Splintered….
Had to chuck these. I loved them at first but they are not durable. Scratched themselves up right away and then the mid sized one started to splinter. I didn’t even have it for very long before I had to get rid of them. Long enough to not be able to return. I prefer the bamboo as far as wood goes, but switched to an antibacterial. It’s crazy because I had the same cutting boards for years and in the past month I’ve had to replace them 3 times now. I was so disappointed because there were such amazing reviews. Sadly that was not the case for me. I give it a 3 because they are absolutely beautiful…..you get points for being beautiful I suppose in this world. But not durable. At least not for me.
