Alcohol is the obvious choice for bad things to consume, but in terms of strictly food, I'd have to say something particularly spicy like Thai food. A rumbling, sour stomach (or worse, as portrayed in the movie "Along Came Polly" with Ben Stiller) is going to be mighty distracting...

So we have ideas for potential harmful offenders, but what is something that folks have actually consumed before a match that has proven to be a "no go"? How'd you deal with it? (Grin and bear it, complete disaster, what?)

Fried chicken gizzards from Popeye's.  They're tasty but can turn on you in the middle of a game!

You know, me likes Chinese food while chess game going instead of 'worst things to eat while playing chess'. So me likes for appetizer sometimes Pawn Sticker in Dreamy Foot Paste, sometimes Pawn with String Bean (served one of each or to taste), or if hungry white and black shrimp (32 pieces); for meal: Moo Goo Guy Pawn, Pu Pu for Two Pawns Platter (Hot!), Pork Chow Mate, Yu Hsiang Yu Shudplaychess Eggplant, King Pow! Checkmate Chicken with Bang! Bang! hot and sour pea shoots, Ma Pa Bishop Curd with 17 light, fluffy pawncakes, Numbing Lamb Face with Biang Biang Hand Pulled Dragon Mein Lines, Squished Eel Delight with Praying Mantis Appendix Cartilage and Queen Pudding, Beery Kow on the Bishop's Lettuce Bed with the Happy Couple, Taro-Sweet Potato-Knight's Head-Rice Ball Soup, Baked Cream of Salted Hot Green Oozing Wasabied Knight Buns, Ying Yang Mei (Very) Fun served on a steaming hot chessboard, Combo Tactical Platter with General Kasparov's Battering Ram Drunken Rooster served on skewers and eaten with a fork, the Queen Empress's Sizzling Happy Duck Spleen, King Drop Soup for the endgame, er final dish, and for dessert, many fortune rookies on moist towelettes.  Hee hee hee, Mr. Lee, now you may use our restroom to go pee, did you drink too much tea?  You must have had a meal fit for a king, Generally speaking.

One pack of melatonin all at once--you would go to sleep and never wake up. Losing on time would be the main problem.
