I love cashews and World Market. Guess I will have to take a ride up there tomorrow.

I can't find them online. They must only have them in stores. There are cashews and ginger here - anybody know where I could find the recipe? I have been looking online and can't find one. Celeste

I love cashews but it's one of those foods that, once I start, I have a hard time controlling. Consequently, I keep them out of the house.

Yes, I believe you have to purchase them in the stores. I don't have a recipe for them but I'd be happy to ship some to you, if you would like. Feel free to send me your mailing address via private message.

UGH I LOVE cashews. Problem is if I eat a few, I have to eat the whole can/jar. LOL They are so adictive! the only time I let myself indulge in cashews and honey roasted peanuts is during the holidays. Same with fresh pecans. But cashews top the list.

Omg...I love cashews....and ginger for that matter. Ginger works wonders on an upset tummy! (and Papaya too!) I am into the all natural stuff!

Question....can you eat nuts once you have been banded??? (and healed of course) I just assumed that nuts would be on the "no-no" list after banding!!

I eat nuts on a regular basis. They were never part of my "no-no" list.

Oh yay....they are a good source of protein and i was worried I was gonna OD on fish for protein!! LOL

now I have to go to world market today!!! How bad are the calories on those cashews? So far I'm been sticking with almonds and peanuts the most. Nuts work great on my new few bites an hour plan.

My Dr. has them on a list of foods to avoid, simply because of calorie/fat content. I think if you can do them in moderation they are healthy, full of minerals, and even if high in fat, it's healthy fat. I thought I could do moderation, and found I can't. I'd been doing 5-6 nuts a day as a healthy treat, until a few days ago. Where I ate a cup of mixed nuts - 800 calories and 80 grams of fat. I need to stick around 1100-1400 calories a day, averaging 1200 a day over the week to lose, if I eat a cup of nuts, it doesn't leave many calories left over! Nuts are now off my own personal list. The exception - If a store that has bulk nuts in bins, I'll buy 5 or 6 nuts only, just to eat as a healthy treat that day.

Of course we can eat cashews!! 1/3 of a cup for each meal should work out just about right!!

Oh dear.. yeah, I wish I could stick to 18 pieces, a cup of those (8 ounces) would set me back over 1200 cals! I could easily put a cup of these away. I'm envious of you who have the willpower to keep to the small serving sizes of these things. I've even been known to eat the whole can of a can of nuts pre-band. Now I could only eat a cup, but before... eek!
