Had mine removed in my mid thirties. No jelly and ice cream, just some toast. Yes you can eat it ok, which surprised me. Home the next morning but I got an infection which caused a lot of pain and I struggled to swallow for a couple of days. Once I was on antibiotics everything was fine.

I was advised by the doc to eat 'rough' foods as it helps to keep the wounds clean which are left open after the op. You will be fine, best thing I ever did having them out.
