Default Peanut oil appearance

For the years I used Planters peanut oil (until it seemed to disappear
from the shelves) it had always been clear, yellow and liquid. You
know, like oil!

This week I ordered a house brand (they didn't have Planters) from
Stop & Ship via Peapod delivery service. and it is markedly
different: almost opaque, milky white, and viscous.

I'm hesitant to open it. Is this is a "new improved" product? Is the
different appearance due to a new processing method? Or is it bad
batch? Can anyone shed any light on this?
