Even the local agricultural extension office says that it does not need to be 
refrigerated. It seems that the acidity is high enough to prevent the usual 
deadly beasties from multiplying. You will notice that the warning label 
states to refrigerator after opening to preserve the flavor." This is a 
direct response to the FDA's determination that refrigeration is unnecessary 
also. Nothing scary about it. Only more informed people who actually tested 
the product instead of making assumptions that were based on guess work. The 
'please, keep refrigerated' guess here was originally based on the egg 
content and was never actually tested.
