Usually you take the rubber bands out before eating so they don't snap on your mouth, but it really just depends on what your orthodontist tells you to do. If you are instructed to take the bands out while eating, you can eating almost anything (except gum, popcorn, etc-stuff you can't eat with braces period)

Hope this helps you!
