I will concede that when attempted by an Instagram or Pinterest professional, a butter board can look pleasing to the eye for about five minutes before anyone actually engages with it. That\u2019s when things get questionable. <\/p>\n<p>After artfully spreading softened butter on your butcher board canvas, then sprinkling with assorted toppings such as herbs, nuts, fruits, and spices, party-goers are invited to use torn chunks of bread to scoop up and eat the butter and toppings off the board. The food itself, bread and butter, is certainly not reinventing any wheel, but the opportunity to create aesthetically pleasing displays for your next party \u2014 and, more importantly, your social media feed \u2014 is why they\u2019ve taken off in popularity for dinner parties and baby showers alike. <\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/Cih_DHdDJsv\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\"><\/blockquote>\n<p>With content creators trying to one-up each other, the trend has been taken to impressive, and yet alarming heights of human innovation.

After the first few swipes, any aesthetic appeal you achieved is degraded to an incoherent mess, as is any respect for hygiene. There is suddenly nothing appetizing about it. <\/p>\n<p>We finally emerged from a global pandemic, where the fear of germs was so tightly held that we forced loved ones to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aarp.org\/home-family\/friends-family\/info-2020\/hugging-wall.html\">embrace<\/a> through a shower curtain, only to throw all caution (and apparently all utensils) to the wind. Do you know what bacteria and pathogens live in the porus cutting board you\u2019re serving room temperature butter off of? Have the numerous hands you are literally breaking bread with been scrubbed in before engaging? The answer to both questions is \u201cnot likely.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Look, I ignore the CDC\u2019s overly cautious food safety guidelines like any sane person who eats their steak medium rare. And while there is certainly a time and place for eating with your hands, we also invented forks and knives for a reason. Just because we\u2019ve all grown strangely indifferent to the catastrophic events happening around us doesn\u2019t mean we must abandon all rules of civility. Let us at least go down in dignity. No more butter boards. <\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/>\n<div class=\"article-author-description fst-italic\">\n  Madeline Osburn is managing editor at The Federalist.
