Yes Tanay ji, very sad to see that children now a days are mostly interested in Computer games and Television. When I see my son playing on Computer I think about my childhood which I think was more enjoyable. We had less money but was more happy than the present children. Coming back to Cashew nuts, in Kerala there is a story behind its name. The name Cashew nut is derived from the Malayalam words Kash - *Cash * and Ettu - *Eight* - meaning for one paise Eight nuts were available once upon a time. Kash-in-ettu became Cashew nut. I heard this story during my childhood days. Any other stories on Cashew Nut?
