Prior to shipping, is it stored properly (i.e., refrigerated), or is it sitting on a shelf?

it is shipped seal up in plastic and boxed. I keep mine in the refiig. to keep fresh. I sat it out for a a few minutes to soften up. Like any and all oils even crisco I keep in refig., this helps to prolong the freshness longer and does not get that funny taste when left out in cabinets. Some oils will thicken up but sat out for 15 to 20 minutes and will lossen up to oils. Oils loose it's vitamins and value when left out. Hope this helps. I have been cooking for 54 years and have learn a lot.

it does not have to be refrigerated right away or even at all if you store it in a cool, dark place (pantry, etc). I keep mine in an airtight container in the fridge but have also stored it very successfully in the same container in my pantry.

Well that depends upon how hot it is. I keep it on the shelf when it's cool and in the refrigerator when it's hot. It's great stuff though.

It doesn't need to be refrigerated. Keep it like you do any other supplements - probably best in a dark cabinet.

I stored mine in the refrigerator, a friend of mine did not. Both of us enjoyed the product and had no problems. :)

No, it does not need to be refrigerated after opening. Unless you prefer to take it cold. It's up to you!

I did not refrigerate mine. I kept it in cupboard. Shake it everytime you use it. It is thick.

No, does not need to be refrigerated. Bottle says to "keep it in a cool, dry place"

I store mine on the shelf. I'm not sure how it would respond in the refrigerator.

It's best stored in a cool dry space. I keep mine sealed in a thick freezer ziplock bag.

If you buy it retail and it was on a refrigerated shelf yes. I got mine via Amazon Think about it this way too. Pb8 is a living thing. I refrigerate mine. Keeps the bacteria strong in my mind and don't die off

on a previous pkg of similar, I decided to keep it in the refridge. I havent opened this one. It's currently 'somewhere' in our cabinet...

Once it has been opened it should be kept in the frig as I recall. I would call the manufacturer or look on the label if you are not sure.

I store mine in the cabinet because it's easier to get to. As long as it's a cool dry place you're good. Some people definitely put it in the refrigerator though. I have to share the refrigerator with others so it's always overcrowded! Hope this helped.

No, it does not. And it does not need to be refrigerated after you receive it. If you were to buy it in a store, it would be on a shelf in an aisle that is refrigerated. It does need to be prepared in a cool drink though.

Refrigerated after opening in a sealed bag. It should last until you use it up.......
