Best Answer

Zeus was a Greek god, and he never ate his children; he is noted for swallowing Metis, mother of Athena as well as Phanes. His father Cronus swallowed all of Zeus's older siblings (Hades, Poseidon, Hestia, Demeter, Hera) before his birth and it was with the help of Metis that Zeus made Cronus spit them out whole.
