That is how the spinach industry works. The kid sees their favorite daytime cartoon hero consuming vast amounts of the spinach food and beating up the bully, and immediately they feel a sense of spinach need and have their parents buy it. One the spinach food is firmly in their grasp, they squeeze the can and the spinach flies out, the kid eats the spinach, flexes their muscles, takes a puff off their corncob pipe, and quickly defeats the bully on the playground who was just moments earlier stealing their chocolate pudding with force. After that, they join the Navy and do the same thing to the Nazis in World War II. Izzy Sparber then directs a movie out of it starring Jack Mercer as the voice of Popeye. It all makes perfect sense.
