Wow, I had no idea they were popular there. Here, peanuts and almonds are more popular, but I love cashews in stir fry and Thai fried rice.

haha great idea – yeah we will have to see, since we just had another month of over 9% annualized inflation here. You can say, “I need to look into these countries to see how they have managed this miracle.”

Great! “…minimizing total debt” would be enough, since a loan is a debt.

In that case, I would say, “Please review the contract carefully.” You would “look into” a problem or a question or an issue, but you would “review” a document or contract or project. You can say, “I think there’s a mistake in Section 4 of the contract. Can you look into that?” In that case, you’re asking a person to look into a specific question or problem with the contract.
