Foods with no fat whatsoever are actually quite rare, since even common vegetables contain a tiny amount of fat. The only food with absolutely no fat is sugar, however melons and cucumbers come quite close, since they're 99% water.
Foods containing minuscule amounts of fats are your common fruit and veg, excluding avocados (which are high-fat).
Nuts are high fat (including coconuts), with the exception of chestnuts, which are low in fat but are not fat-free.
Refined grains (white wheat, white rice etc...) are also very low in fat, since the fat is normally removed in order for the grains to last longer; fat makes grains become rancid quickly. (The fat occurs in the "germ" of the grain, which is technically a "brown" part of the grain removed during the refining process). But again, no grains are completely fat-free, whether wholegrain or refined.
Skimmed milk is typically 1% fat, which in turn becomes 1% fat yoghurt.
White meats (chicken breasts, white fish etc...) are low fat, but again do not contain "no fat".
