Silicone, of course, It is inert and will pass through the digestive system. That is one reason silicone is used for medical devices with body contact.
Petroleum jelly is used on cosmetics and on cuts because it is safe too. Lots of uses for it.

Hi, Food grade Lubriplate?
My Scuba instructor reffered to the lube he recommended as rubber food, way back in the day. That was probably silicon grease.
In the context of a lubricants that may be ingested Vaseline is pure and Silicone lubricant is not. Silicone lubricant has unknown added ingredients that would make me hesitate.
Thanks MLD, I will be using Silicone grease..
