anything
During your bleaching, immediately after it, try not drink liquids with strong colorants like coffee, tea, don't smoke tobacco or chew tobacco that is the worst stain, for at least a month. If occasionally you do, rinse your mouth with water immediately and brush your teeth.
You can eat anything you want. However, food coloring like berries, spaghetti sauce, coffee, and tea would lessen the life of the whitening.
No real restrictions. Just be aware of what foods stain (i.e., tea, coffee).
Hello,

Congratulations on your teeth whitening. After bleaching your teeth, you want to say away from foods and drinks that cause the staining in the first place. Stuff like pasta sauce and wine are important to avoid; however, the big one that gets people is coffee and tea. It does help to know what affects you, though. Coffee and tea affect are a big cause for staining for some people, but others do not have a problem with it. The best coarse of action is to avoid the ones that stain your teeth worse. This is mainly for the first 48 hours; however, it stands to reason that the longer you can avoid food and drinks that stain your teeth, the longer the results of the whitening will last.
Hope this helps.

My best to you!
