Wondering if anyone has thoughts on whether it’s worth paying extra for “green” kitchen cabinets — i.e., made with sustainable wood and without formaldehyde or toxic glues. I’ve been told wood and particle-board in most new cabinets are treated with formaldehyde and made with toxic glues that can cause allergic reactions and in higher doses are cancerous. Anyone know if this is a real concern or not something we should worry about?
