Aside from all the other issues with this, $3 a meal per person is $270-$280 per person per month on food. Many people can’t afford that anyway.

I’ve been thinking for years at this point a salary-sacrifice, state-run hello fresh would be fucking awesome. Would need to be properly run, get actual expert chefs and nutritionists in to design it, contracts for farmers, plan well in advance. Doing it on a massive scale would (hopefully) be more efficient, reduce waste, provide jobs and be a source of social cohesion.
Let it be optional, the better off subsidise the less well off. Kind of like the NHS for food, even allow top ups for “special” meals as and when.
