I’ve only used plastic so far. A friend was moving and she gave me her wooden cutting board. I cut something with it, and some grease got on the cutting board. Now I can’t remove the yellow spot no matter what I do. What can I do to clean it?

        There is literal food grade mineral oil for this exact purpose along with lubricating food making equipment. It’s basically completely inert and is sometimes even used as a food ingredient. You can straight up drink a jug of the stuff with no health repercussions other than the violent greasy shits you would get from drinking any oil. Just because it’s a petroleum product doesn’t automatically mean its bad for you.

          Can you cite any research, not sponsored by the petroleum industry, that relates to this opinion? Walnut oil is a food product, is made from walnuts, doesn’t go rancid, and works quite well for maintenance of cutting boards and other wooden kitchen ware.
