Nuts, edible; coconuts, Brazil nuts and cashew nuts, fresh or dried, whether or not shelled or peeled
In plain English
This section covers edible nuts, including coconuts, Brazil nuts, and cashow nuts, whether they are fresh or dried and regardless of whether they have been shelled or peeled. The specific types are separated based on their form and preparation. Coconuts are distinguished as desiccated, kept in their inner shell, or in other fresh or dried states. Brazil nuts and cashew nuts are categorized by whether they are still in their shells or have been shelled.
