All the time, my daughter loves them. the whole ones just look better, are less messy and seem to taste better than the scraps and pieces.

The whole cashews are more expensive because it is more difficult to keep them intact. The halves and pieces get shaken out to another belt in the seasoning process, and there are more of those than the whole cashews.
YUMMY, I need to go out and buy some now.

halves and pieces are like the scraps/left-overs of whole cashews. although it's annoying, whole ones are much fancier, so maybe it's worth the extra 50 cents.

the whole cashews have all flavor so it tastes better than the halves which are just mainly scraps

You've got a kindred spirit in that question! I totally agree and why are they just so much more expensive and most other nuts?
I think we need to make a pilgrimage to the headquarters, tie up the CEO and make him lower the prices!
Are you with me?
