John Boos Mystery Oil Butcher Block Oil Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)First let me say that this product arrived to my home faster then I expected, especially since it was right before Christmas. The product itself is great. I had just purchased a new, very expensive wooden cutting board and I wanted to be sure to protect it. Someone at the store where I bought the board suggested that I get a "food grade mineral oil". I really had no idea about this type of product but once I started searching the web for info, I found that it is the best thing to use to keep your wooden boards like new for years. I was unable to locate any of this oil at the stores that I go to normally so I turned to my tried and true friend, Amazon.com Sure enough, they had this product. Once I began using it, I could tell right away what a difference it made in how my new cutting board looked. I typically use my board every day and have been using the oil once a week. The board has stayed "fresh" looking with no lasting cut marks and no water damage after wash ups.

Joyce Chen Bamboo Wood Oil, 8 Ounces Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)So called 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. This is a must have for any kitchen with wood items. If you buy any sort of wood gift this is a thoughtfull add on which will help your gift to both maintain its beauty and last longer. This product appears to be offered at the best price on Amazon. Add it to your next order.
Snow River Wood Oil is an identical product but at the price of $6.99. The Snow River oil has also been available as a 4 for 3 promotion.
Wood and bamboo oils are much less exotic than one might think. 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.
