Finding untreated bamboo?

I've been thinking about how great bamboo would be to use in the tat for climbing and eating... they have those giant poles at home depot and ocean state often... but I'm not sure if they've been treated or stained or anything... Anyone know of a good safe brand or shop to get it from? Or if using any is fine? I was planning in using sushi mats for the background but now I'm uncertain

Hi! I found a few different websites that sell bamboo.

Edit: They’re all meant for things such as frog closures so they should be safe.
