You're on a liquid diet.
Soups that are not too warm. Jello, yogart, ice cream. Anything that can't get wedged into your openings or that may damage the stitches depending on the type of extraction. No straws!
Soft foods like mashed potatoes and gravy, apple sauce, pudding, jello, etc. My favorite thing was mashed potatoes and gravy from KFC when I got mine pulled.
Nothing to cold or hot, something soft. Like Jello, pudding. Don't drink through a straw either. Take it easy on eating for a few days. Apple sauce is good too.

Anything liquid or pureed. Applesauce, clear or cream soups (with no chewy bits), juices, milk, custard, jello, etc. This may sound goofy, but pureed baby food would be very easy to handle and be full of nutrition - you can even get pureed meats.
nothing but liquids for the first day. the next couple of days stick with soft things such as eggs, mashed potatoes or cream soups. after that, ease into a regular diet slowly. nothing that requires a lot of chewing or opening your mouth to wide.
soup...only the stock..no rice or noodles or veggies in it. Also, jello, fruit smoothies and mashed potatoes.
Anything soft, and not to hot... Just remember to rinse your mouth out with salt water, to get any food particles out of the holes where your wisdom teeth use to be. Believe them when they say don't use a straw , to drink with this causes dry sockets and that REALLY hurts.
strawberry applesauce.
eat a hamburger through a straw

We advise people on discharge not to have anything very hot or very cold. Also a soft diet (so no sharp nuts or candy).
So foods like custard, stewed fruit etc are good
Just a bit of advice. Don't drink through a straw for a few days. The sucking action can disturb the clot and sometimes cause a "dry Socket" not a pleasant thing to experience..
