It's a little ambiguous whether higher numbers mean more protein or more fat (convention would dictate protein but clarification would be good practice). Units would also be useful on that axis. Weight ratio, calorie ratio, or stoichiometric ratio?

Also pine nuts aren't a tree nut (nor indeed a nut at all). Likewise macadamia.

Are we botanists, or people eating food? Because I think we're talking normal human definition of "nut".

Are you nuts? I agree though at least peanut should be here.

Peanuts grow "under" a ground plant, not on a tree.

They aren't nuts at all, let alone tree nuts. If you're also allergic to pine nuts that's as much of a coincidence as you being allergic to butternut squash or nutmeg.

Thanks for the feedback on the axis. Really wasn't sure of the best way to phrase that.

Well, if we are going by the botanical definition then almonds, pistachios, walnuts, cashews, pecans, and brazil nuts are also not nuts.
