Go to the chemists aka the drug store. There is a pharmaceutical-grade mineral oil.
There's a statement on the label of the bottle that I bought for wood finishing which
says that it's a "mild laxative."
Nonetheless, mineral oil and beeswax goop would be just fine on birch.
I'd still heat it to get a penetrating finish, particularly if it will be wet in service.
