this update corrects the data for avocado, as the value i had plugged in is not reflective of what i bought. the avocados all weighed between 110 and 125 g, not 200 g. so, i'm lowballing at 100 g. data still from the self site [usda]. they're still not ripe yet, but they're closer.

i'm also updating the data for flax to make it a tablespoon. 

together, those two changes really dramatically lower the 6:3 ratio, in preparation for a possible soybean caesar dressing. it actually even takes my total omega-6 requirements back into the 75%+ range, meaning my previous concerns about avocados are not likely relevant to this diet, in particular. this is not an endorsement of avocados, and i would still advise being careful with them, but i'm so careful about fat, in general, that i actually need a source of it...

the avocado was brought in to fill the holes for b1, b3, b5, b6, b9, e & f1. after replacing the repackaged skim milk with nutritional yeast, b1 & b6 plugged up, leaving b3, b5, b9, e & f1 - with b5 still not sufficient. this correction takes me further away from b5, and reduces my total daily f1 into the yellow zone, but doesn't affect b3, b9 or e - other than to assert the necessity of the avocado for those reasons, relative to the existing choices. 

a little powdered milk will help with b5 & choline and i think that's the right answer.

top line items in green indicate necessary to complete requirements of reasons following in blue, relative to already existing additions. these items are untouchable.

it is not yet clear whether i should return to one banana or not, at this time. it would reduce the b5 that much more, and get me to the yellow for b9. more components are required.

while the reduction in k is the upside of the smaller avocado, it is not enough to bring back a second kiwi.

disclaimer:
i've gone to town with a few things - i'm not making up vitamins but rather filling things in. i mean, there's all these "missing vitamin names". what were they, exactly? it also gives me an excuse to work in a few things like choline that are hard to otherwise define as they are essential in some amount but not technically vitamins.

note that these numbers are scavenged and should be interpreted approximately. that's partly why i'm aiming to overshoot on most of it.
