I just did Xoom bleaching but accidentally ate brown rice with olive oil, butter, oatmeal, butter, and eggs and wanted to know if they might have stained my teeth. They don't look as white as I'd liked them to be and I think they were whiter when I left the dentist's office.

Answer: Zoom Bleaching - what to avoid after treatment
Not likely! Foods to avoid after Zoom! bleaching are ones that would stain a white tee-shirt. (Red sauces, soy sauce, Balsamic vinegar, tobacco, coffee, tea, berries etc). If you think you could get whiter, ask your Dentist to fabricate take home bleaching trays so that you can continue to bleach at home. This way you are sure to get the results you want.
I have seen patients whose teeth fade slightly after bleaching (no matter how they bleached their teeth). For those patients, I always stress the need to go a little whiter than they want their final color to be, as they will fade slightly over the first 24 hours. This is rare, but maybe what happened to you. Did you complete all 4 cycles during the Zoom? I notice that it happens more to patients who halt the Zoom process early. Good Luck.
