Most of us have noticed Popeye will open a can of leafy green substance and he quickly becomes agitated, violent and out-of-control. Occasionally he will injest the substance through his pipe. Even the powerful Bluto can't control him. I suspect he is injesting a powerful drug cocktail. Does anyone know what the ingredients were?
We all know Spinach does not give a persona that kind effect Dys. There may have been a bit of spinach in the can to make the drug cocktail more palatable but I suspect something more sinister was inside.
What's in Popeye's can?
The sailor's log.
It was definitely a mixture of amphetamines and angel dust. This has been long since proven. I would refer you to, "Modern Interpretation of Mythology" by Kenneth Snell, which has an excellent and well researched analysis of Popeye's abilities.
I am inclined to agree with Brandon on this. The symptoms Popeye exhibits are consistent with this particular mixture. Perhaps he should be singing, "I'm strong as a tank cause I eats me crank..."
(what a funny seal! how does he do it, ladies and gentlmen?)
It's pretty self-evident, kids...Popeye was exhibiting classic symptoms of roid rage. Read this info from the National Institute of Drug abuse "in high doses, anabolic steroids promote aggression that can manifest itself as fighting and physical abuse. Steroid abuse can also cause undesirable body changes. Men may develop enlarged breasts and experience hair loss."........I rest my case.

Well, that explains The Hulk, then.
Indeed the Hulk was a steroid problem gone awry. Combine that with massive doses of Viagra and you whole body starts to swell.
it was the germans who studied spinach before ww2 but they got it wrong that it had 10 times more iron in than any other vegetable, but by this time it was too late popeye had already been made.
Is this to imply that Popeye was a Nazi???
nah the germans researched it and we stupidly created one of the best cartoons ever on false information
I dont know what was in the can but it sure made him animated!!!
Brrrr chshshshshh... thank you...Im here all week.
Dont you mean ug ug ug ug ug ug?
