Essential oils derived from edible foods are also edible. They may be too strong in flavor or irritating to your mouth (such as oils from hot peppers).

Is oil of oregano safe to give horses?
I have used essential oils professionally for more than 20 years for products at vivantnatural.com. While there are a few essential oils that are safe to ingest, there are many more that should not be ingested. It is good practice not to take essential oils orally, but rely on the essential oils in the herb itself. That would be far safer. Dogs can eat oregano, garlic, and many other herbs.

Is it dangerous to rub essential oils on feet?
This question needs a two-part answer. If you're asking whether it is more dangerous to rub essential oils on the feet vs. other body parts, then the answer is "no." In fact, as a Certified Aromatherapist, I would consider it safer to rub essential oils on the bottoms of the feet than on other body parts. This is because the feet have thicker tissue, lessening the chance for irritation. That's precisely why many of us recommend applying essential oils to the bottoms of the feet - in addition to being safer, it is also therapeutically very effective. The second part of my answer has to do with how safe it is to rub ANY essential oils on the body at all, feet or elsewhere. In short, essential oils are NOT created equal. Some can go on the body without being diluted (we call this "neat") - these are Lavender and Tea Tree - some need dilution, and some can't be used at all and are toxic. I consider the soles of the feet to have a wider latitude (or tolerance) for essential oils that can be used "neat." The rule I would follow is this: if an essential is safe for topical use, then it is certainly safe to apply to the bottoms of the feet. Here is a list of essential oils that are generally regarded as safe (GRAS) by the FDA: http://www.libertynatural.com/info/eoinfo/FDA_EO_GRAS.htm. If it is not on this list, then I would not suggest using that essential oil at all, whether on the feet or otherwise.

What is the difference between an aromatherapy oil and essential oil?
Essential oils are actually not "oils" at all. They are volatile organic compounds made up of a variety of chemicals but because they contain no lipids, they are not technically considered oils--at least nutritionally. "Ordinary" vegetable oils, on the other hand, contain lipids and that's what makes them "oils". Some vegetable oils contain what scientists call essential fatty acids. These are fatty acids that the body needs but cannot make on its own. But they should not be confused with the botanical extracts known as essential oils. Essential oils are oils that use in aromatherapy. These oils have a therapeutic property and if use correctly can overcome some health problems.
