Bringing Food to Levaya

Is there any issur or minhag not to bring food or water to a levaya?

Answer:

No, there is no problem in this.

However, one should not eat or drink in a cemetery.

Best wishes.

Sources:

See Yoreh De’ah 368:1, and Biur HaGra 1 explaining that one should not eat in a cemetery because this is Kalus Rosh. This will not apply to drinking water if it is hot etc.
