20100236426CONVERTIBLE CUTTING BOARD - A convertible cutting board is a system or apparatus that provides its user with a surface suitable for the preparation of food as well as an integral means to cover or seal food for storage without having to remove the food from the preparation surface. Advantageously, a convertible cutting board system provides a user access to food contents sitting atop the cutting surface without the requirement that the cutting surface be removed from a larger container or that a dome element be de-communicated. Further, embodiments of a convertible cutting board system feature a retractable dome element that collapses when access to food on the cutting surface is required. Also, some embodiments feature a dome element operable to provide an air-tight seal when in the closed position. Still other embodiments provide a means by which the food preparation surface may be separated from the system but, importantly, separation from the system is not required in order to gain access to stored food.09-23-2010
