 The Why of Wood Oils January 12, 2008

The only things really wrong with this are the suggestion that wood oils are a mystery and the price of this item. The oil is certainly fine stuff if you don't mind the price. Snow River Wood Oil is available at a lower price when you consider that it is available as an Amazon 4 for 3 item and with free super saver shipping. Wood and bamboo oils are simply food grade mineral oils. You should use a wood oil in your kitchen instead of vegetable oil because mineral oil does not break down or become rancid. Wood oil gives sheen and water and stain resistance to wood items such as butcher block, cutting boards, pizza peels and wooden salad bowls. You can use wood oil to darken and restore the appearance of faded wooden knife handles or dried out wood cutting boards. Wood oil is a must have for any kitchen with wood items.
I actually use mineral oil laxative on my wood kitchen items ($2 for 16 oz. at many drug stores) which is the same thing. Clearly the laxative bottle is less than aesthetically pleasing and is embarassing to leave around the kitchen. My wife keeps hiding the bottle in fact. But No it won't have a laxative effect if you use it on your cutting boards or knife handles.
 Love it December 18, 2007

I bought a Boos block about four years ago and didn't have the chance to buy the oil at the time. To save money I used some cheap food safe mineral oil. I noticed my board was drying out and I had tossed the mineral oil. After going on line and looking at all sorts of food safe block oils, I decided to go with one provided by the manufacturer of the board. They know what they are doing and they created an oil that will make their boards last longer and look more beautiful. It absorbs quickly, has no unpleasant odor, and makes my board look great. I check it every week now to see if it needs oiling. Highly recommend- for your board's sake.

Great product. Highly recommend it. I leave it on overnight and wipe off any excess in the morning. Leaves wood nice and clean and smelling great.

I liek the oil, and use it on my Oak boards. But how many flammable/explosive foods can you think of?!
Love the oil, but it does make you think...
