Even oils with metallic driers?

I don't recall the place I read it, but it was some government thing (and
you know you can trust them) that once cured, any finishes are considered
food safe. I'm not a chemist so I can't tell you what happens to the
driers. They are catalyst and evaporate to my limited knowledge.
