Lucky in Steamboat

I am now 2 weeks post op. I am on the liquid diet and am finding myself dying for another flavor other than sweet. The broths are making me feel sick.  Any suggestions would be great.  My surgery was on the 15th and now it the 25th.  I have lost 23 lbs and feel I am on a plateau.  Next week I get to start blended food.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  If you have suggestions please let me know.  Also does spicy food irritate the stomach or cause dumping?
