For how long do I have to keep off colored foods/drinks after a teeth bleaching?

I got my teeth bleached at my dentist. I do not drink coffee and I do not smoke. However, she said I should keep off colored foods/drinks (tea, red wine, chocolate, fruit) for a week, but it seems a little exaggerated. Can I eat strawberries?

you can eat anything anytime, but the sooner u eat things with a strong colour the more likely that your teeth will pick up the colour as they are more prone to straight after bleaching. if you do eat these things just try to brush after, or rinse around with water.
