When I received this product I input a review without having had a chance to use it. Therefore I gave a provisional approval for the Product.
I NOW GIVE THE Food Grade Mineral Oil for Cutting Boards, Countertops and Butcher Blocks - Food Safe and Made in the USA MADE AND MARKETED by THIRTEEN CHEFS
AN Absolute and unequivocal approval. The product meets 100% of my Needs.
This product is easy to apply, has no discernible scent and is completely absorbed into the wood. No sticky or oily residue. The knives and butcher blocks look wonderful and more importantly the moisturized items have had their useful lives extended. I will continue to use this product as it is perfect for my needs.
Thank You Thirteen Chefs!

Food Grade Mineral Oil for Cutting Boards, Countertops and Butcher Blocks - Food Safe and Made in the USA
Review:
I have used Food Grade Mineral Oil for over 20 years.
I have given the Thirteen Chef’s a “test run”, and have found it to be a top quality product and with a 12 fluid ounce bottle, I consider this product to be a good value.
Food grade mineral oil is used to treat the handles of wood handled knives, wooden spoons, butcher blocks, butcher block counter tops, and wooden cutting boards.
The mineral oil replaces the natural oils that the Wood contains when new. Through the washing process the wooden components mentioned above the oils are leached out of the wood, causing the original color to degrade and in the process, reduces the longevity of the wood.
- [ ] The treatment process is simple. Wipe the oil on the wood to be treated, rub it in for about 30 seconds, set it aside on a hard “non porous” surface ( like a dinner plate) for between 12-24 hours, and your good to go.
- [ ] The only exception to this would be for the treatment of utensils which have not ever been treated. In this case, several treatments may be required to bring the item being treated back to a pleasing appearance.
- [ ] In the case of wooden spoons and other wooden cooking utensils, the oil having soaked into the items being treated, gives the item more flexibility and reduces the chance of breaking a utensil which has become brittle through the loss of its natural oils.
- [ ] It is not advisable to use other Food Grade oils such as oil oil or vegetable cooking oils as they do not soak into the woods cellular structure as well and tend to leave a sticky residue on the surface and the stickiness increases over time.
