Coconut oil can be refined or unrefined. If you are going to put it in your food, I would definately get the unrefined type. The refined would be fine for making soap, but it totally lacks any coconut scent--it is refined, deodorized, and bleached, so it is not as desirable, though it's usually a lot cheaper than unrefined coconut oil. My coconut oil is generally solid, but it has a very low melting point, so if your house is warm, it may turn to liquid. That's all I know about coconut oil.
