My butchers block has an odour of sweaty armpits from chopping and grating onions and garlic... sad32:

I am currently trying vinegar...I will try salt and vinegar next (cue smart reply from Darwin) and then lemons...any other bright ideas?

Butchers of my acquaintance use salt to rub down a wooden block. whistle:

Scalding hot water and bleach also helps for the initial clean down ..... then coarse salt and elbow grease.
