You have a well rounded and farily balanced list for a college student. Most college kids are all about mac and cheese, and ramen noodles. Along with a lot fo fasst food.

Peanut butter is actually good for you even if it is hass sugar in it.

Granola bars are not great but they are better than candy bars….by a bit, lol

Add in whole grain pasta or even a quinoa pasta.

You know fresh fruits and veggies are good, why do you need us to tell you if theya re good and bad?

Fruits- always good for you
Veggies- well, technically tomato is a fruit but I don’t see it on your list- canned tomatoes are inexpensive and excellent for making beans and brown rice dishes. Or whole wheat pasta with simple sauce (you need onions and garlic on your list.
Proteins- seems fine except the lunch meat- it’s full of nitrates. Maybe consider roasting a turkey breast or leg and using it for sandwiches (or dinners).
Carbs – good (just no rice or pasta?- maybe you’re not a fan)
Condiments- I would buy some Braggs all natural soy sauce- nothing but soy beans- no sugars in it.

If you like sprouts, consider growing them in a very large jar. Easy, very inexpensive.

And lastly, wraps are something to consider- quick, easy and you can throw just about anything in there.

Buy LARGE bags of rice. Not the packaged quickie stuff. Way too salty.

I think you’ve got some great choices there.

Granola bars will be fine for you.

I agree that your list is pretty good; fruits & vegetables are key, by colour group.
Tuna in water & sardines are good fish protein. I get the fat-free turkey lunch meat.
The peanut butter has to go, many are half sugar, try a bulk-food store for natural.
You could try lo-carb tortillas instead of bread for wraps. Check carbs on granola bars.
You can mix olive oil, red wine vinegar, & mustard, for salad dressing.
Try lemons instead of sweeteners in tea.
Mix 50% soda water with real antioxidant juices.
