Weyu Le and Herbed Cashew Spreads

Earlier this week when I was in the Los Angeles area with Steph we dropped by the Erewhon Market for some goodies. We sampled some cashew dip on a display table near the refrigerated products. The "herbed cashew spreads" included Garlic, Sun-Dried Tomato (yum!), and Habañero. The man stocking the shelves with the product was charming, very well informed about the product, and pleased that we enjoyed it. We learned as we continued talking that he was Nelson Chipman, owner of the company, Weyu Le, that made the spreads.



We ended up purchasing the habañero version and enjoyed it very much. Next time I think I'll try the Sun-Dried Tomato. Although there is not yet a way to purchase these products online, Nelson told me during a phone conversation that they're working on that for 2009. As soon as we hear about that here at YAWIE, we'll pass it along to our readers.

Those of you in the L.A. area ought to check out the Weyu Le products. If you don't know where Erewhon is just click on this map link, and enter your address as the starting location. Enjoy and report!
