Maybe they are not as fit for exporting or selling so the more profitable parts get sent to US instead?

CarbonIceDragon@pawb.social 1 day agoAren’t the tops edible too? I wonder how the little shriveled bean thing on the end became internationally popular but the juicy looking fruit on top isn’t. Like, every cashew harvested has to have the fruity part too, what do they all get used for?

Cashew juice is very tasty and it’s quite popular here in brazil. It also has medicinal properties for when you have diarrhea.

They’re not great. But you can make decent jam from them.

They’re called cashew apples. You can find them at asian and latin grocery stores sometimes. Never had one, but i hear they are tasty.
