Suggest Safe Food Options During Flu

I have had the flu, though most of the annoying symptoms are gone - the fever remains. For the most part, the fever hovers around 98.9 - 100.2. I have been to many sites that say do not eat with a fever . However, I have had this fever now for almost a week. I have drank plenty of water, eaten chicken noodle soup, and endless packages of Saltines. I m starving. Are there any food suggesstions you can come up with that would be safe to eat? (other than those mentioned above) Please help. Thank you.
