Are these cashews steam processed?

I have no idea. You'd have to ask the supplier. I just bought them and know they are raw. Sorry.

As everyone has said, they are whole cashews. They are packed in a large, heavy-duty plastic zip top bag. There is some breakage in transit. It's almost impossible not to have some, with such a large bag, but we had perhaps two small handfuls of small pieces, at the end. On the other hand, from what we saw, it's fairly easy to split the cashews into halves, so perhaps 10% of the bag had split into halves, but very few were broken into small pieces. The cashews were quite large, and we ate the majority of them out of hand. We were very happy with them.

I dont know if theyre kosher or not. Theyre made by Necco so you might want to call tham.

Not almonds, cashews are fine. The motor burned out after several weeks of moderate to light use.

I actually asked the manufacturer this and this is the response I got: "The almonds in our Almond Butter are steam pasteurized. Steam treatments are surface treatments only. Multiple proprietary steam treatments are currently being utilized by the industry which meets USDA Organic Program standards. The short bursts of steam do not impact the nutritional integrity of the almond. These treatments do not "cook" proteins or destroy vitamins and minerals. The nutritional and sensory characteristics of the almonds remain unchanged when treated with steam." So rest easy.. they were never sent to the PPO gas chamber. Thanks, Woodstock.

Yes they are. We have been very pleased with them, because we wanted the dry roasted, unsalted. Very good.

why would you throw them out rather than return them???...amazon guarantees you get what you pay for..and fishy cachews are not acceptable. I bought the cashew pieces to eat raw and they are very good..in smell and taste.

Yes they are. also not toasted, roasted or salted. They are a bit cheaper at Costco but not worth the trip if that is all you need.I eat them for a quick snack.

Yes, they are. Wash them well in soapy water and dry thoroughly. I use mine several times.

I had a batch that sprouted. I left them soaking for too long. This was almost a year ago. I got these to make tofu. I am just amateur in making tofu but I can say I haven't had any problems using these beans for this purpose.

I read the can thoroughly and it doesn't indicate anywhere whether the seeds are raw or roasted. Sorry I couldn't help.

I was told they use the steam method. Short of going to the processing factory ourselves these days we have to take a company at their word. These worked fine for our use though of making almond milk. We soaked them 8hrs and changed the water mid way through.

They are moist. No indication on the packaging that they are pH balanced and/or hypoallergenic

In my experience they are the most "unwashed" and freshest I have been able to find so far. There's not really a full proof method to check but usually the darker the water you wash them in, the better the seeds are.

Yes they are. However, I noticed that someone below mentioned they got them from Simply Nuts. I bought mine from Angelina's Gourmet as they are the only manufacturer I know that processes them in a BRC facility. Buying from other suppliers - caveat emptor.

Not raw...in fact they seem like stewed prunes to me. Not dry like dried prunes, but very wet and slimy...not my choice, but my Mom loves these.
