D d d didju know that cashews come from a fruit

[-] joyjoy@lemmy.zip 36 points 1 week ago

They're also very poisonous when raw.

[-] marcos@lemmy.world 15 points 1 week ago

They are delicious. You are trying to eat the wrong part.

(And don't bother, you won't be able to eat the poisonous part anyway.)

[-] flambonkscious@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 week ago

Is the 'apple' part good to eat?

[-] EtherWhack@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago

IIRC yes, but they don't keep well enough to be able to get shipped outside the regions where they grow.

They are supposed to be pretty tasty too.

[-] new_guy@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

Yes, when it's red and shiny like the middle one in op's pic.

It has a basic taste (as in the opposite of an acidic taste) and you can put a pinch of salt on the meat of the fruit to season it a bit.

It's so juicy and refreshing!

Rad! I'll keen an eye out when travelling (yeah, right...)

The cashew tribunal will now decide your fate.

Your fate is a nasty rash, since fresh cashews are poinsonous

Hey now. We cannot expect "content creators" to take 1.7 seconds to review what they've written. That's time they can be making more errors on a new post.

they will give you a poison ivy like rash, so you need to burn off the outside, but if you inhale that smoke guess where you get poison ivy

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

I'm not sure I get the sentiment, but I'm here for the cashew memes so I upvote and interact regardless.
