What does Saturn have to do with human consumption?

Saturn is also the Roman name of one of the titans from Greek mythology (Cronos). It was prophesized that Cronos would be overthrown by one of his children, so he would eat them. The drawing is based on a famous painting by Francisco Goya.

And fun fact: Goya never named it that. People just assumed. Somewhat related, he had a lot of mental health issues.
