Resealing tea tray (thing that catches water)

So my bamboo tea tray has finally sprung a leak. I was wondering if
anyone could give me a tip on what to reseal it with, that won't be
detrimental to my health. Any ideas?

If there are no mechanical forces to take care of silicon should do
the trick.
I´ve been using two-part epoxy for some more critical jobs -
waterproof, contact with foods etc... - without any problems so far.
I´d be far more concerned about how your bamboo had been treated, due
to the great surface area.
My tea tray [bamboo] smelled like a paint shop when I bought it, I
guess it´s not the only one.

How about a bamboo or rosewood top and a plastic catcher?

I think I'm going to try the Gorilla Glue method first. Thanks for
the input everyone!
