I have printed some food safe prints for a friend couple of times now. Nozzle is stainless steel, Filament is natural HIPS. Stainless & HIPS are both food safe materials (if not mixed with color pigments). After the print, you need a clean surface. HIPS can be smoothed in an Acetone-Bath. Simply put it in for 10-15 min and you'll have a glossy finish.
HIPS is very easy to print in an enclosure and the resulting product is fairly stiff and durable. It's also temp resistant up to 90-100°C. So it's dishwasher safe.
Do not inhale acetone vapor, wear respiratory masks that filter out voc like acetone vapor.
