Sorry I did not get back to you sooner. Emmet's Elixir is a FOOD SAFE combination of mineral oil, beeswax, and anti-microbial essentials oils. The wood craftsman who installed my butcher blocktold me to buy only this product. And it is excellent!!!

The label states, "food-safe combination of mineral oil, beeswax and anti-microbial essential oils." So based on that, I'd say your answer is no.

I Googled this product to find out the ingredients. I bought the product as a gift for my brother, so I do not have it at home to read the label for you.. Here is what one website said. "An all natural, antimicrobial formulation of beeswax, food grade mineral oil, and essential oils from lemon and rosemary, Emmet's Elixir is key to protecting your butcher block investment."

sorry about not getting back to you sooner. I was going to use this on a cutting board. I still haven't done yet. I'll have to look on the label to see if it has linseed. did you try googleing it?

No, I have used this product and it is only mineral oil, beeswax, rosemary and lemon essential oils. It smells wonderful when you apply it due to the rosemary.

On the bottle it says:" Emmet's Elixir is a food-safe combination of mineral oil, beeswax and anti-microbial essential oils." That is the extent of the info on ingredients. Nothing mentioned about flammability. Phone numbers are 231 347-4170 or 800 447-7075. Good luck.

Hi Carol, I don't think it has any linseed oil. the container says it's a food safe combination of mineral oil, beeswax, and anti-microbial essential oils. And it certainly doesn't have any smell like linseed oil.

No...this is for woodworking. Fyi linseed oil is the construction industry name for flax oil. Flax is the edible version. Never eat linseed oil it is not processed correctly for ingestion.

Yes.... This is a petroleum based product.... It is not highly flammable, but would burn.

Hi Diana Castañeda. No, this product is not flammable. I've traveled myself with this product many times. Hope that answers your question.

It is not flammable as I know. The concentration is very high, I dilute this stuff to 3% for most the usage.

i don't think so as it comes in a packet that includes oil which says to me it is made to be cooked in oil

I didn't even see that. Since I use it mostly as a face oil and hair conditioner and I keep it in my vanity drawer I m not concern about contact with flame. As with all oil I would think it can be flammable if it comes in contact with flame or fire. Hope this answers your concern

It's not really an oil, but rather a liquid wax ester. Don't have to worry about it going rancid.

I just read the labels and there is no mention of being fried in oil. The label does say that the nuts were packaged on equipment used to package peanuts, soy products, milk products, etc. However, I tend to think that the nuts are healthy because I can eat them and I am allergic to anything cooked in peanut oil.

Sorry, I do not know and my husband isn't here. He is very aware of only using healthy oils in or on anything.

I think I may have used a bit of olive oil when I sauteed something. The unit didn't last long - very disappointing - would not purchase again. Sorry...

this product is not food safe. i believe it may be boiled and then solvents. on the package, it states the disclaimer about "can cause cancer etc." there are other companies that make foodsafe linseed oil - and sold on amazon too. hope this helps

Do NOT mix with linseed oil!! Tung will not grow algae; linseed will.Thin with citrus based thinner--1 part to 2 thinner; then 1:1 for 2 coats. THIS is actually food safe too. Food safe is baby safe, LOL.

No, I wouldn't even try. Alcohol is much more flammable than kerosene and lamp oil. It's also more expensive. It's always better and safer to use the fuel the appliance was designed for. It does burn very well in stoves designed for alcohol use.
