Product Description
The Perfect Remedy For Your Thirsty Board
Wood gets "thirsty" -- it gets dry -- drying can lead to cracking and deterioration -- cutting boards and butcher block surfaces are no exception -- protect your investment with regular applications of either Boos Board Cream or Boos Mystery Oil.
Frequency of application will depend upon how often you use your board and how you clean it -- for example, wiping with a damp cloth versus using hot water. Other factors to consider are weather conditions such as humidity and heat during the different seasons of the year.

Awesome!,

This review is from: John Boos Mystery Oil Butcher Block Oil
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.

The Why of Wood Oils,
By
This review is from: John Boos Mystery Oil Butcher Block Oil
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. Both Joyce Chen Bamboo Wood Oil, 8 Ounces and Snow River Wood Oil are a lower priced when you consider that they are available 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.

This review is from: John Boos Mystery Oil Butcher Block Oil
Boos Mystery Oil is not just typical food safe mineral oil. I have butcher block counter tops and the Mystery Oil helps keep them from drying and cracking and over time gives a warm shine to the butcher block. I purchased the recommended treatment for my counter tops and it was a mess, the Mystery Oil is far better. The best accidental discovery that I found is that Mystery Oil makes my stainless steel appliances look like factory new. I discovered this my first time out when I spilled some on my stainless steel cook top and went to wipe it up. The streaks from the cleaner and all finger prints just disappeared and the stove took on a deep rich shine. All you have to do is put a few drops on a paper towel and start polishing. Don't get it too thick or you just wind up wiping up way more oil than is necessary. Experiment with this a little. I use it on my fridge, dishwasher, ovens, everything to polish stainless. You do need to clean your stainless with Windex or other cleaner first to get any soiling off, then follow up with a light polish of mystery oil. You will be amazed at how beautiful your stainless will be. One word of warning however, it does cause a little dust to cling to flat surfaces, so you may have to give it one more wipe down the next day to clean any excess.
