In Greek mythology, Zeus put a mixture of mustard and wine into Cronus' drink to make him vomit up his siblings, whom Cronus had previously swallowed. This act was part of Zeus' plan to overthrow his father Cronus and become the ruler of the gods. The mustard likely acted as an irritant to Cronus' stomach lining, causing him to regurgitate his siblings and ultimately leading to Zeus' victory in the Titanomachy.

Supposedly, Zeus was born soon after the castration of Ouranos (Father Sky) by Cronus (Zeus' father).

Rhea (Zeus' mother), fed Cronus a stone in place of Zeus and gave him a drink of (poisoned) honeyed wine which made him vomit up the other children (and the rock).
