I need to buy the ingredients for Amecian food

It's not too hard to imagine. Imagine you college student and must cook for yourself, and take a trip top the market to buy staples to cook for one month. What do you buy? Here I buy many spices, lamb, and things you would not.
 
College student?  Got you covered for the whole week.

If it help I list my favorite foods from America you tell me the dry ingredient, the fresh and meat, I can shop local.
 
fried chicken
macaroni cheese
bacon cheese burger
poor boy sandwich
chili and chili hot dog
also corn on the cobbs and cole slaw
baked beans
 
thanks
 
Thank you!
 
The lastly, is, I forgot to mention corn bread. But I am not to the stage of baking, but how hard is corn bread? I have a cast iron pot that we use for stew. Can this be too tall or manage?
 
And I will buy corn meal, butter.
 
anything else, thank you! It's a long trip to the city.
 
I guess you'd be wanting cooking oil, flour, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, salt, milk, butter, eggs, cheese, mayonnaise, chili powder, mustard, sugar, vinegar, ketchup in general. Hot dog rolls, burger rolls, whatever sandwich bread you like for your stuff. Hot dogs, hamburgers(ground beef), corn, beans seems pretty obvious. A lot of that stuff you can just kind of get as is if you don't want to make it from scratch.

Are there need for me to buy sage, basil, rosemary? These are hard by me, but at the American market, plentiful, as dry, and some fresh.

Salt
Sugar
Bacon or other pig derivative
Flame broiled cow
