Raw Linseed Oil

Q: Is this safe to use on a butcher block or other surfaces that are used to prepare food?

Boiled linseed oil contains formaldehyde. I bought the raw linseed oil which has a slower cure time, but it is food safe.

Q: Why does the can say it can cause cancer? What is in it that can cause cancer? Thank you.

Does linseed oil have any sort of odor/smell while wet or after drying? Also, I have heard that the flaxseed oil you can find in stores will not fully polymerize but turn rancid overtime. How is this different? Thank you!

Q: Will this change the color of my wood?

YES, NO & MAYBE !!! There are many variables, such as the type of wood species, how the lumber was cut, any pre-treatment, indoor or outdoor, etc. Mostly likely you will observe a slight change to a golden hue. Try experimenting on something similar first.
