Keep in mind that even "food safe" varnishes like Salad Bowl finishes contain mineral spirits and naptha. So adding more doesn't really make the material any less safe. Once cured, these finishes are perfectly safe and will not transfer an odor or taste to you food. Check out the Nov. 2008 issue of Popular Woodworking for my article that covers this exact topic. There is an accompanying video on Popularwoodworking as well.

Never use salad oil or any animal fats like crisco solid - it will become rancid and make the board taste bad which will transfer to the food. I've used mineral oil for as long as I've been alive, never a problem. Adding the beeswax gives it a hardener as does the paraffin. Not sure I'd drink mineral spirits so I doubt I'd use it to thin wiping varnisg plus the board will have an after taste and odor of the mineral spirits. USP or food grade (not technical) mineral oil is best.
