Default Eating for $4/day

Trying to stay under $120 a month, any suggestions on what types of food specifically to look for when going about eating for that cheap while being as nutritious as possible? Hopefully no ramen or taco bell value menu etc

Chicken, rice, and turkey. These three foods will be the diet of one of my friends for the next six months. He is trying to lose weight. This is a very cheap alternative if you are trying to lose weight and stay on a budget.

when I was in my first year of University I ate for 2$ a day, and I felt super sick. But it was the only way I could possibly afford being in University. 2 freezer dinners a day, (both for dinner). That was it. I also ate/drank copious amounts of Iced Tea Mix. So maybe 2.10 a day. I would not recommend it lol

Would it make sense to do this for the purpose of paying bills?

Basically..

Grilled Chicken breast
Chicken wings
Deep fried French fries (guess that counts kind of)
Hamburgers
Brown Rice
Bread
Nutella
Vector
Protein bars

That's pretty much my entire diet really. Obviously there might be some minor changes here and there to hit my macro goals, but I very rarely eat veggies or fruit. I might have a banana like once every few months or something.
