Hello, I am looking for an alternative to mineral oil to oil my cooking board (end grain oak) due to skin allergy reactions. I know that olive oil (or others can go rancid), but could they be used as an alternative if handled properly? like oiling the board once a month eventually instead of once a year? or whenever it gets dry? what if it gets cleaned properly? I guess my question is would care and maintenance reduce the risk of cooking oil rancidity?

Thanks chefs!
