If these are being used as cutting boards in the kitchen where they
chop food directly on the surface, then
1. They should not have any "shiny finish" or any finish at all.
2. The local authorities will likely have a pescribed cleaning and
application requirment.


Hmm... Being in Mexico, all the local authorities care about is getting their
"taxes"... I doubt that there IS a sanitary code here..

I think you should be safe buying the mineral oil mixture (with other
ingredients) from Boos company. They are one of the few companies with
the NFS certification which is required for wood surface materials
with direct food contact and their stuff is surely approved.

I'm thinking more and more that no finish is best...
