Food for three days

If you had no pots or pans (but an oven, a stove, and a fridge) and all of the restaurants/ fast food chains/ cafeteria (I live on residence) were closed tomorrow, Saturday and Sunday, what would you buy to eat today so that you don't go hungry? (Bread is one for sure ...)

Go to the grocery store and buy stuff to make sandwiches and salads. 😀
This includes veggie sandwiches and fruit salads.
You can also make burritos and eat in oven on tin foil.
You can also broil meat on tin foil in the oven.
I'm a culinary student if you need more ideas just ask.

you can put frozen pizza directly on the rack. the crust is nicer that way anyway. brush the edges free of cheese bits, and it should be clean, too. oi, and go buy a small pot. cup noodles are fine, but you can't make decent instant ramen, which is way >> cup noodles. if you need nutrition and think it needs to be heated, wash a whole potato and give it the frozen pizza treatment. no tin foil necessary.
if you have left-over bread (ie, stale, hard, tough), at least a bowl and want to cook cold, make panzanella:
ingredients - bread, 1 tomato, italian salad dressing, fresh basil.
chop (or tear with your hands if you have no knife) a tomato. put that and any drippy tomato liquid into a bowl, tear a colorful amount of basil into the bowl, drizzle olive oil or salad dressing, add chunks of stale bread (or toast fresh bread in the oven or oven's broiler). mix it around with a utensil or your paws. after the bread soaks up liquid, you got poor man's panzanella.
if you want to get fancy-schmancy, sub out the salad dressing for olive oil, basalmic vinegar, minced fresh garlic, coarse salt, and fresh-ground pepper. btw, the last two ingredients make a huge difference with everything eaten delivery-style.

I'm still a fast food addict, but I like fruits too. So, since I also suck at cooking, I'd get oranges, bananas, appeles and grapes (this are my favs). Also fruits can last fresh for at least 3 days so this are my choice.

I'm guessing you don't have a microwave either.
Now, if you don't feel the need to eat anything hot/warm, you could buy canned or other processed "dry" goods. Just open them and eat. It's fine as long as the containers are not compromised, e.g. Botulism. If you want it warm... you could probably fashion a bowl out of tin foil and cook it in the oven.
Here's a dry good that's enjoyable even without heating it. You could get it at Costco (if you live in the US).
Other things that you could do... yogurt + uncooked oatmeal + preserves = good times. Banana + Peanut Butter + Honey + Bread = The Elvis (well, not quite... to make it complete you'd need to fry it.)
You could also check out this link just read the instruction on how something is made to weed out if it'd work or not.

Bread, peanut butter, jelly, and lots and lots and lots (and lots) of snacks. Milk, water, and juice. Some meat and vegetables. And fruit. Everything that can be eaten raw basically.

Thanks for all of your suggestions! Thankfully, I survived Easter weekend when everything was closed. It's true that you don't really appreciate things until they're gone.

Honey Nut Cheerios 🤣 Seriously I've eaten the brand for a whole week.
