I love onions and have consumed the spring and green type which I have also grown myself…

…although I was prescribed Donnatal which contains anticholinergics…

Modern interpretations

Snowdrop, perhaps the herb moly

Medical historians have speculated that the transformation to pigs was not intended literally but refers to anticholinergic intoxication.[17] Symptoms include amnesia, hallucinations, and delusions. The description of "moly" fits the snowdrop, a flower of the region that contains galantamine, which is an anticholinesterase and can therefore counteract anticholinergics.
