A tropical fruit-bearing tree or its edible cashew-like fruit, also known as cashew or a variant spelling thereof.
Variant or alternate spelling of 'cashew,' which comes from Portuguese 'caju,' derived from Tupi (Brazilian indigenous language) 'acajú,' brought to Europe through 16th-century trade.
Cashews were literally 'discovered' by Europeans in Brazil and then planted everywhere else—Portuguese traders spread them across Africa and Asia, so now India is the world's largest cashew processor even though it's not native there.
