I used to watch Popeye around dinnertime. I asked Mom to buy me a can of spinach so I could eat it when Popeye did. I took one bite, spit it out, and have not touched it again in the 65 years since.

Howard Groopman, Maybe, try it boiled, then add some garlic and oil, to eat on a roll, or with harder bread, with mozzarella cheese. You might like it that way. Thank you, Christine, James' wife

maxinebentley, Swee'Pea is adopted. He was left on Popeye's doorstep by his unknown mother.

Lawrence Szatkowski, Castor Oyl, Olive's brother, is said to be the parents of popeye's nephews, however popeye is also said to be the nephews' uncle. Their story is short and inconsistent.

A good comic trivia question and an explanation that at least answers the question.

Daniel benelli

They say they are nephews, I wonder.I never saw his brother or sister.

Melissa Brooks

They are too funny.

The names chosen for the comic strip character Popeye's nephews have a very amusing twist to the pronunciation of each one of them.
