The cashew or cashew nut is the fruit of the cashew tree, a tree native to Brazil from the same family as the pistachio or mango tree. The cashew tree is found in tropical areas of America, Africa, and Asia, where it is cultivated for its nuts. Cashew nuts are roasted in coconut oil, which helps retain good nutrients! Moreover, the organic roasted cashew nuts are produced by a company that respects its employees. The inside of the cashew nut shell is filled with a corrosive acid for the skin. To protect themselves, the employees apply coconut oil.
