I suppose it depends on the technique. If you are in yoga class, and are going to stand on your head, your pasta may not like it!

But in general, meditating after eating is not a great idea, because the food "weighs you down." In biological terms, more of your blood and energy is going to your gastro-intestinal system, so less is available for watching, for awareness.
