What it is

Cashews are kidney-shaped seeds that grow at the bottom of the cashew apple. "Dry roasted" means the cashews were heated in an oven without oil. "Organic" means they were grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers.

Why it's used

Cashews are often used as a snack or in cooking. They can be ground into a creamy butter or used as a dairy-free alternative in sauces and "cheeses."

Health notes

Cashews are a source of healthy fats, protein, and minerals like magnesium and zinc. The FDA recognizes cashews as a major food allergen. No specific regulatory limits (like ADI) are set for cashews by international bodies like JECFA or EFSA, as they are considered a whole food.

Allergen info

Cashews are a tree nut, which is one of the 9 major allergens identified by the FDA. They do not contain gluten.
