theres no such thing
*Improved Answer:*
That is not true, unless the answerer took the term literally, thinking you were asking about a real coma induced by food. (In which case, it is still theoretically possible in extremely rare cases to fall into a coma resulting from symptoms of a food allergy.)
However, the question was about sleepiness after a meal which is commonly known as "Food Coma".
This feeling is usually experienced after consuming a large meal, or a "heavy" meal, but can be felt even after small carb-heavy meals.
It is caused by several factors, including the digestion process suddenly consuming up to 50% of the body's energy level, blood sugar changes due to food consumption as well as hormonal shifts in the brain following a meal. The same hormones that are supposed to trigger the "I'm Full" signal also trigger the "I'm tired, let's sleep!" signal.
