Regular cashew vs. raw cashews

Me and my mother have taken a huge intrest in the raw diet. She has lost weight on this diet and has tons more energy...I however have fallen off the wagon. This is my time to jump back on! One question we did have is what is the difference between just "cashews" and "raw cashews"? Any help is appreciated!!

Hi joygreen

the regular cashews you buy in the stores will have been heat-treated, so they're not actually raw. (a lot of other nuts aren't actually raw either by the way).

Raw cashews have been cracked open by hand, and are hence a lot more expensive. In fact, some say there is no way to be sure that any cashews are 'really' raw.

Also be aware that even with some hand shelled ones, heat is used.
