My biggest must haves has been my K-cup soups. Chicken, vegetable broth and cream of mushroom. I just pop them in the Kuerig coffee machine, and I sip on them all day. Has been keeping me from getting dehydrated because drinking plain water has been tough. You can find these soups on Amazon. They are called Minute Cup.

Wish I had known about these back when I was in my liquid stages post-op!

I appreciate this info. so much! I'm going to go out and buy a Keurig (though I'll have to try and find an older model since Keurig now checks for authorized k-cups, or some such nonsense).

Just so you know, there are many ways to bypass the DRM that's built into the Keurig 2.0 models. There's a company that makes a little plastic clip you can clip into a specific spot and then any k-cup will work, but the shipping time for that is very long. There are videos all over youtube showing quicker DIY techniques. But they do still have the K45 Elite model available at most retailers if you'd rather just not have to deal with the DRM at all. That's one of the "older" models, though they are still in production. They also have the advantage of coming in a bunch of different colors now.
