Do I need to "season" my board when I receive it?
Your end grain cutting board will arrive oiled and waxed so you can use it right out of the box. You should, however, season your board a couple times during the first two weeks of having your board with Stags End cutting board oil. End grain cutting boards are more porous and can handle more oil than a typical wood edge-grain cutting board. There’s no such thing as too much oil, the wood won’t take on any more oil once it’s fully saturated. Just remember to wipe off the extra using a lint-free kitchen towel and to set your cutting board to dry on its edge to allow the air to flow evenly around the surfaces of the board.  Stags End cutting board oil is food grade and safe for human consumption.
