# How to Get Food Stains Out of Maple Wood Kitchen Cabinets
Maple wood is a common material for kitchen cabinets that provides a base for a wide variety of decors and styles. Unlike synthetic cabinets, maple wood is more sensitive to any cleaning solution or process that involves excessive water. The wood, like any other type of wood, will absorb food stains you’ll need to remove as soon as possible. Use a cleaning process that will clean the food residue without damaging the maple wood.
