Non-metal Themed Mixtape Game

I assume an instrumental song can still have a theme based on its title, compositional intent, original context, mood, etc. We've had several instrumental songs before, like the Imperial March in the Hate mixtape or the several classical submissions we've had. In fact I won the Childhood round with an instrumental song from the soundtrack of some old anime I assume no one's seen except CiG.

Anyway it's pointless to change your mind now even if I could as it would be obvious to anyone which song is mine. For anyone who's wondering, the song I submitted was the main theme from Cannibal Holocaust. Not the strongest pick because it doesn't convey the theme of 'food' in a strictly musical sense (although it's a pretty chill song to eat to) but it was legitimately the best song I could come up with for this theme. I won't submit anything else unless I have a sudden flash of inspiration and come up with something I didn't think of before.

EDIT: I had a sudden flash of inspiration and came up with something I didn't think of before.
