    Default Kitchen table/ceramic tiles/grout

    I have a kitchen table which has ceramic tiles on top with what seems to be a slightly flexible white sealant/grout between the tiles. This sealant/grout needs to be replaced due to age/discolouration....etc. Can anyone suggest a sealant/grout that would be suitable for a kithen table bearing in mind that it would need to cope with the heat of a pan straight from the hob and also be fine with food e.g. bread being put on the table etc.
    Help would be much appreciated.
    Rob
    PS I have looked at EVERY grout item that B&Q have on their shelves and they ALL say not suitable for kitchen surfaces........

    As above, epoxy grout is best for food prep etc
    I feel the need, the need for speed!
