I just finished a bowl of cashews and thought I'd share a pic of a cashew apple that I got to eat in Costa Rica. The yellow part is a pseudofruit (because it lacks seeds) and is absolutely delicious. Note that you should wash your hands if you touch the shell (the actual fruit) because it contains urushiol just like poison ivy (both are in the Anacardiaceae). The seeds have this chemical, too, but it's removed by cooking.
