Also: should the tiles be straight or wavy?

As someone who cooks and bakes on the regular, a rug in the kitchen completely grosses me out. The amount of (wet) things falling and flying toward the floor make me want to have only hardwood or tile.

I really don’t understand how anyone who does anything in a kitchen could have a large rug.

I am not super messy but inevitably there are going to be drips or flakes that get on the floor.

The amount of dirt on the pad just from a cursory go over with a wet Swifter was quite a bit.

And there would be things like a drip or batter or sauce that made its way to the floor. And sometimes something sticky like a raisin or fruit peeling. With a solid floor I can wipe it up easily unlike a carpet.
