What should you avoid eating before a vocal performance?

Never do peanut butter before you sing. Its really bad for your throat. If your going to have honey as well you need to melt it in a tea or something because sticky things really screw up your voice. there is a reflex that your throat does that can make your vocal cords work to hard, which can damage your veals. one important fact :before performance , never ever eat solid foods, especially when sing or playing a large instrument. peanut butter is very thick , try a small beverage like maybe juice or water and a cracker . Don't eat or drink dairy products. dairy products coat your throat, which is NOT good before a performance.
