What effect did spending time with lotus eaters have in odysseus men

As soon as the men of Odysseus tasted the sweet food of the lotus-eaters their minds forgot about their comrades, falling into a state of drowsiness that induced them to stay on that island forever.

Explanation:

In the history of the Odyssey, a hurricane carried Ulysses' boat for 10 days across the sea to reach the island of the lotus-eaters, a tribe whose only diet is consuming the lotus fruit.

When Ulysses' men went to investigate the island they met these natives who offered them the lotus fruit and when the men tried this food they were submerged in a lethargy that made them not want to go home.

It was then that Ulysses with several of his men tied up and took his men to the boat by force.

A. The men lost the desire to return home.
