Hi All,

Any opinions on this type of finish being food safe? I mean is it okay
to use for something like a fruit bowl? I don't think it would be safe
for salad bowls or to eat out of.

I looked on their web site and I didn't see any information about it.


NOTHING is safe if the prospective customer feels uneasy.

On the other hand, most anything is safe depending on dosage.

Shellac-based stuff like Myland's is probably no worse than any other
finish, but you'll certainly destroy the gloss with the first use.
