Review on Food Grade Mineral Oil for Cutting Boards: Safe and Made in the USA - Ideal for Countertops and Butcher Blocks by Prince Aguirre

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent product for house cleaning

I bought this mineral oil for two main reasons. The first was to protect my high carbon knives. There are many foods that do this, but many of them are not food safe. This may not be a problem for other applications, but I mostly use my knives in a variety of ways, including cooking, especially when I'm on the go. It's nice to know I haven't coated my blade with anything potentially dangerous. As far as rust suppression goes, time will tell, but I have no reason to doubt it will do the job. The second reason I bought this product was to oil my wooden cutting boards. I've used olive oil before, but it tends to go rancid, so I don't use it as often as I should. However, I thought my cutting boards were in pretty good condition until I treated the first one with this product. I was amazed at the difference it made. Also, there was absolutely no odor that I could detect. Now I will definitely lubricate them more often. Only criticism is that the bottle was dented quite badly in transit so it doesn't even stand up. At some point I will no doubt have a major spill because of this. This is probably due to the packer or carrier and has nothing to do with the quality of the product.
