[quote=Anonymous]I have a run of wood, and I like it: it's inexpensive, it gives when you drop a glass on it, and it doesn't show every little fleck of whatever on it, but you do know when it's time to wipe down the counters. Ours have an oil finish; they just need a wipe of food-grade mineral oil occasionally. They do stain if they're light (ours are), but the stains don't bother me. They're minimal, and they do fade over time Maybe not if you spill a whole bottle of food coloring -- yikes, PP! -- but a drop of food coloring or say, totally hypothetically, a dribble of red wine -- will fade. I'm guessing over time the stain gets dispersed throughout the wood, but I don't know. Anyway, if you want dark wood counters, they would show fewer stains. [/quote]
