30 Bananas a Day!

I've read before by 811rv people on the vegsource.com forum that the ratio naturally comes out to about 1:1 when eating fruits and veggies. However I just got cronometer and did a meal of:
10 medium apples
10 cups black berries
a little less than 1 pound (400 grams) kale
about 1 1/4 walnuts
2 persimmons
This is 2046 calories
All the vitamins, minerals, amino acids and every thing look great but the omega 3 to omega 6 ratio is 2.9 : 6.8 which is about 1:3 ..........seems a little high. What do you all think?

Up to 4:1 is said to be okay.
Wow, how can you eat so much kale! lol Sorry for the derail, I can't eat a single leaf without being grossed out by the supper bitterness :)
Just FYI,here are the omega 6 to omega 3 ratio's of common nuts & seeds:

English Walnuts 4:1
Macadamia is 6:1
Black Walnuts are 16:1
Pecans are 20:1
Pistachio is 37:1
Hazelnut is 88:1
Cashew is 117:1
Pumpkin Seeds 117:1
Sunflower Seeds 300:1
Pine Nuts are 300:1
Brazil Nut is 1000:1
Almonds 1800:1

CA Avocados 15:1
FL Avocados 16.5:1

Flaxseed 3.9:1 ***
Chia Seed 3:1 ***

(***these are a reverse ratio as the omega 3 is higher than the
omega 6)
WOW I thought walnut had a more equal ratio. Nuts are prety far off from 1:1 hehe. Thanks C dove.....Medjool I will check out that link and TreeofLife.......I like Kale lol......to me it has a nutty flavor to it and sometimes boder line sweet. It really depends though, some batches are prety bitter and I dont eat that much regularly though I could I think.
Thanks for the clear and practical listing of ratios!
Here's a few additions to the list:

Hemp Seeds 2.5:1
Poppy Seeds 40:1
Watermelon Seeds 70:1
Sesame Seeds 170:1
Peanuts 600:1

Coconuts - infinite ratio (no omega 3:s present)
