Cloudy oil

I recently bought some rice bran oil from Pak and Save and it was cloudy, even at (quite warm) room temperature. Is it OK!

try heating some until it clarifies, usually it will be iether water contamination or particles of fatty acids which are high melting point. Niether being harmful in a cooking oil.

cool thanks. have been using it and it seems fine. but i thought that if oils went cloudy is was because they were cold and we had 25 degrees today and still cloudy.
