Cashew is correct but the reasoning is not. No special knowledge is required get the answer. Any child who is familiar with all of them can give the correct reason. [/ QUOTE ] The only distinguishing characteristic that I estimate a child would recognize is the fact that a cashew is curved. How in the world this could have anything to do with poison ivy, I do not know.

Re: See if Sklansky can get this brainteaser
I used to be able to name every nut that there was. And it used to drive my mother crazy, because she used to say, "Harlan Pepper, if you don't stop naming nuts," and the joke was that we lived in Pine Nut, and I think that's what put it in my mind at that point. So she would hear me in the other room, and she'd just start yelling. I'd say, "Peanut. Hazelnut. Cashew nut. Macadamia nut." That was the one that would send her into going crazy. She'd say, "Would you stop naming nuts!" And Hubert used to be able to make the sound, he couldn't talk, but he'd go "rrrawr rrawr" and that sounded like Macadamia nut. Pine nut, which is a nut, but it's also the name of a town. Pistachio nut. Red pistachio nut. Natural, all natural white pistachio nut.
