Hello,
Food poisoning may cause spinning but after closing the eyes spinning may be due to sensory ataxia, benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) or vestibular neuronitis etcetera. Take rest for a few days, drink plenty of liquids. If symptoms not improved, please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
