The stuff I have now has been in the fridge for 4 days. It has still not become solid. Most OO's I purchase become solid in the cooler. I'm wondering, is this oil still being trifled with? Thoughts?

From what I've been told/read, it keeps much longer and better refrigerated.. According to my um 'health book', it is supposed to turn solid, and when you need to use it, it is run under warm/hot water.
