So i found this baby bird in my yard. it fell out of its nest. there was another baby bird that fell out of its nest about 5 feet away from it, but it didnt survive…. and its dead. so i took this baby in and put it in a converse shoe box. (with ventilation of course.) and so my niece named it peddy, cuz she was there with me. 
anyway, it was opening its mouth really widely cuz it wanted food! i didnt know what to feed it, so i called my *friend and she said the best thing to feed it was bugs. i dont have bugs. so she then said to try feeding him hot dog… i did and she took it really well and ate it. it was really cute!!!!…. so i’ve had it for half a day now…. but then baby peddy vomited the hot dog a few hours later after fed it to him, several times around the box. i then refused to clean that up and moved it to a different box. so now, i dont know what to feed him. other things that my friend suggested that i dont have chicken or turkey, i cant go to the pet store to buy it bugs, cuz i cant drive, and i cant feed him KFC or chicken nuggets cuz they have spices and preservatives! i asked her about feeding it bread, but she said it doesnt have enough nutrition to be its main food. i then asked about fruits and veggies, but she said that baby birds dont really eat those.
WHAT CAN I DOO?
please help, this bird has shown to be good and healthy so far.
and i want to help it back into the outdoors.

PS. its a baby Robin.
*btw, my friend is an expert on animals and pets. also, she has taken care of many baby birds before and knows a lot about them.
thank you very much for the answers so far.
also,
how long can this baby bird go without food?
and it is tilting its head straight up with a big mouth as if asking for food. (i've seen this on television) so thats why i thought he wanted food.
OH! IMPORTANT ADDITIONAL DETAIL!!
i found a lightning bug/ firefly! but im not sure that i can feed it that because of the the chemicals that light up its but…..
so is it safe to?
PLEASE ANSWER THIS QUESTION.
