    Same. This stuff is excellent and I’ve used it for years on cutting boards and butcher blocks I’ve made. It’s all natural, obviously food safe, super easy to apply with a paper towel or cloth, and the bottle lasts forever.

      Mineral oil is a petroleum distillate, a byproduct of fossil fuel production. I’m not saying it’s necessarily unsafe or unethical to use, but calling it “all natural” is a bit of a reach.

      You can (if you like) buy food grade beeswax and use a double boiler to melt the wax and oil together.

      For fun more than anything else.
