It's best to feed them rat nuggets. If you were to feed them a food with loads of different choices, they will pick out the bits they like and leave other bits which may have essential vitamins/minerals in. Rat nuggets all look and taste the same and contain everything needed so they can't pick and choose. Also don't feed them leafy vegetables as it gives them stomach and bowel problems. Good treats include non acidic fruits and vegetables, crackers, bits of cheese occasionally and mealworms. If you give them a cold hard boiled egg with the shell still on, they have so much fun trying to work out how to crack it and get inside. If they give up and can't crack the egg, make a tiny hairline crack in the egg, and they will peel off the shell and eat the inside. It is really healthy for them and provides hours of fun! Try avoiding sticky foods such as peanut butter as they can choke on them, and since they have no gag reflex it can easily be fatal.

Your rabbit may love eating them, but just because it loves eating them doesn't mean they are good for your rabbit.
Both are high in carbohydrates and sugars and energy. Those characteristics only increase the chance of making your rabbit fat and giving it diahrrea. So I don't recommend giving them to your rabbit to eat. If you do, give them only in very moderated amounts like one small slice a day. If you give more than a small slice you definitely risk the rabbit getting the runs.

Citrus fruit is great for rabbits. Mine used to love peeled oranges and banana. I've heard that avocados can be bad for birds, but I don't know if that is the same for rabbits.
