Why does not oil turn into a solid when put in the refrigerator?

Oils are generally made with unsaturated hydrocarbons meaning that some of the carbons in their skeleton form double bond "kinks" with adjacent carbons. All these kinks prevent tight packing of molecules such as can happen when a fully saturated hydrocarbons come together. This creates less density and more "wiggle" room for the molecules. Furthermore, they are non-polar and do not get to take part in hydrogen bonding which allows again for more movement. For these reasons the freezing point/melting point of oil is extremely low. Much lower than the temperature of a refrigerator.
