Theresa just set out some cashews. I hinted she should heat them and told her how all the dimestores etc heated them under a heating lamp or whatever. Got thinking about it and I dont think I have seen that done in over 60 years! They were to die for!

I worked loss prevention at Sears part time, while on the Elyria PD. Mostly evenings, so when I would get to the store and start working, I usually stopped at the candy counter and got a large box of popcorn to eat while walking around. I think they made the best popcorn ever. The aroma from the popcorn and hot cashews drifted throughout the entire store.

At one time they had a deli section too, and I always liked their headcheese.
 
The Cabelas in Lehi, Utah, still does that occasionally. Not all the time, but I've been there once or twice when they were doing it. Their inventory doesn't last long.:)
 
Store up the road still has them under warmer lights. I get some at times or maybe their jerky instead. I need to make a trip again as this thread got me hungry for them.
 
I got some from a vendor @ the East Side farmer's market in York, Pa. yesterday...

They're great, but @ $15/lb they're a treat rather than a staple.
 
Walmart sells them, at least the one I go to. I pass the nut aisle almost daily when im making a bee-line for the drinks aisle and I see cans of em on the shelf..
 
Some mall shops sell them that way in the Dallas area, or have in recent times. I haven't looked lately.

You can buy loose nuts in gourmet grocers and heat them, I guess.

You are fortunate to have a wife who nurtures you that way.
 
Oops, i didnt see the HEATED part. however, there is or was a shop in one of our shopping malls--that sold them--as well as about 50 diff flavored pretzels.
 
There used to be Planter's Peanuts stores in Tennessee and Kentucky when I was a kid. They were constantly roasting all kinds of nuts, including cashews as I recall. The smell wafting out on the sidewalk was intoxicating. But that was at least sixty years ago.
 
Sure do, Bunte's Pharmacy in Downtown Zeeland, Mi. I get them one once or twice a year as a treat.

Lol!!!!
Place right in Auburn, Massachusetts, Arcade Snacks, still roasts cashews that you can buy right there.
Here's a story from the local paper George A. Ethier, president and chairman of the board, Arcade Snacks, Auburn - Worcester Telegram & Gazette - telegram.com
that says the owner was owed money and was paid with 600 cashew roasters that used to be in a Sears Roebuck stores.

I hadn't seen them in a very long time, but I grabbed a bag on my way out of the Opryland Mall when I was in Nashville a couple months back from a guy at a Kiosk. They didn't last the walk out to the car.
 
Cabela's here in Lacy were selling some kind of heated nuts last time I was in. I think they were some kind of candied or coated but I'm not sure what.
