Interesting, I buy this RAW cashew butter often: https://artisanaorganics.com/products/organic-cashew-butter and they claim certified RAW, so what's the catch?

5.3.2 The exceptions to this are when Federal, State or local regulations legally require an ingredient or the entire food item to be heated at or above 212F. A regulatory exemption to the temperature treatment threshold does not impact the Bioavailability score (see 6.0 below).
Looks like you've been spending $18 per jar of cashew butter for no reason. The first result for "how to harvest cashews" says "roast the nuts at 350-400 F. (230-260 C.) for 10-20 minutes" to deactivate the urushiol. Not very raw.
