Cashews

Cashews

Everyday

Cashews are kidney-shaped seeds harvested from the tropical cashew apple, requiring careful heat processing to remove naturally occurring toxins. While often grouped with nuts, they contain less fat and higher proportions of magnesium and copper than true tree nuts. Their naturally sweet flavor and creamy texture when blended make them a staple in vegan cheeses, dairy-free sauces, and Asian stir-fries.
