wrong picture

the picture showing cashew nuts being inspected after harvest are not cashew nuts but cocoa beans that are dried after fermentation. Somebody may remove that picture I have no idea how to.

Poisonous

We are claiming the apple is poisonous, yet people obviously eat the apple, and turn it into everything from desserts to booze. Like the seed, it may require processing, but the source that is saying it is poisonous is unreliable and is oversimplifying it. I'm liable to remove this line completely, if someone doesn't come up with a better paragraph to replace it.

https://www.hort.purdue.edu/newcrop/morton/cashew_apple.html is a source saying it isn't poisonous, per se. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 21:30, 30 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I believe it is the nut that is poisonous before processing, particularly boiling I believe — Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.122.178.74 (talk) 03:16, 7 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Tree nut or not?

Article contains ..."but cashews are a less frequent allergen than tree nuts or peanuts.[6]". Reference goes to the paywalled http://pt.wkhealth.com. This seems to go against the opening sentence "The cashew tree (Anacardium occidentale) is a tropical evergreen tree that produces the cashew nut". Every source I can find claims that the cashew comes from a tree and every reference I can find on "Tree Nut" includes the Cashew. What should be done with a reference that cannot be read that seems to disagree with all other evidence? Maybe the article does not actually say that cashew is not a tree nut, I have no way to check it. Mtpaley (talk) 21:57, 14 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
