    obviously they won't be low in calories, so i guess i'm asking what foods have the highest fat to calorie ratio?

    butter, oil, macadamia nuts, pecans, coconut milk

    Here is a list of foods that have the highest percentage of fat, so they don’t have that much room for calories from protein and carbs. I excluded oils from that list, because all of them will have all or nearly all of their calories from fat.

    You can download the search results as a CSV file and sort it by the ratio of calories to fat in a spreadsheet. That’s how I found coconut milk in the list. Most of its calories are from fat, but it doesn’t show up near the top of the list because it has a lot of water in it.
