It depends on whether or not you will be put to sleep. If you are going to stay awake, then you are fine to eat right up until the surgery. Just make sure your mouth is really clean before you go. If you will be put to sleep, you are advised to not eat for 6-8 prior. Anesthesia commonly makes people nauseous and if you have eaten recently can cause vomiting. That is no fun with open sores in your mouth.

Should wisdom teeth be removed as soon as they come out?

Wisdom teeth should be something you should get out as soon as you can, otherwise it can lead to problems with your other teeth or mouth, unless your mouth is big enough to keep them in. Your dentist can tell you if you'll need them out.
