No; when they say Oils and Water do not mix they mean to say that Hydrophobic liquids are immiscible [won't mix with] Hydrophyllic liquids.

In a similar way, the two types of solids that make solutes are different; one ionic and polar, the other both non-ionic and non-polar.

Hydrophobic means 'water-disliking' because they are non-polar which in this case means they have no net-electric charges; they are non-ionic.

Hydrophyllic means 'water-liking' because they have a net-electric charge; they are ionic - just like the ionic, non-polar-fat disliking Potassium Ion!
