We do have freeze-dried food which is the same principle. I usually buy a bunch to carry on hikes. Add cold or boiling water (depending on dish) wait a few mins, stir, and voilà! You got a decent spaghetti bolognese.

I'd be happy if we had fake-looking 3d holograms that were huge and could operate out in the open air and daylight, with a high refresh rate, and were even able to surround a person.

EDIT: and didn't make any unwanted noise, like a drone swarm.
