One of the most iconic cartoons of all time is “Popeye the Sailor,” and believe it or not, there is a day that has been created to honor the fictional character.
That day is today, but before any fans of the cartoon delve into celebrating Popeye The Sailor Man Day, they might not know how spinach consumption became the source of Popeye’s strength and a signature staple of the cartoon.

One of the most iconic cartoons of all time is “Popeye the Sailor,” and believe it or not, there is a day that has been created to honor the fictional character.
That day is today, but before any fans of the cartoon delve into celebrating Popeye The Sailor Man Day, they might not know how spinach consumption became the source of Popeye’s strength and a signature staple of the cartoon.
****************
It actually came about due to a mistake from a scientist.
The illustrator of the cartoon, E.C. Seegar, chose spinach as the source of Popeye’s strength — and the way to get energy to defeat the bad guys — mainly because he read on a label that spinach had lots of iron in it.
The problem was that it didn’t have as much iron as Seegar thought.
In 1870, German chemist Erich Von Wolfe wrote up that spinach contained 35 milligrams of iron per 100-gram serving, but he misplaced a decimal point.
He meant to write it up as 3.5 milligrams, and that wasn’t corrected until 1937. But by then, Popeye had well been established as a series of cartoons (it started to be shown in theaters in 1933).
In fact, Popeye was credited with saving the spinach industry in the 1930s because the cartoon was credited with creating a 33% increase in sales, according to Business Insider.
Of course, it’s not like spinach is a bad vegetable for Popeye to consume for strength.
It’s loaded with an assortment of vitamins, minerals, nutrients and antioxidents that have a numerous health benefits, including reducing the risk of damage to the brain and nervous system, maintaining gastrointestinal health, muscle growth, bone and skin health, helping with vision and keeping blood sugar stable.
There are also some potential side effects of consuming spinach, and both pros and cons are listed in this article by MedicineNet.
But as fans of Popeye pay tribute today, the tale of his obsession with spinach is a life reminder that sometimes glaring mistakes can lead to incredible success stories.

POPEYE® THE SAILOR MAN DAY
January 17 marks the 95th Birthday of the world’s most famous spinach loving, nautical hero — it's Popeye the Sailor Man! Today, we are taking epic strides to honor this legendary sailor who is tough and fit with tons of grit, as one of America’s most renown, pop-culture icons. After all, he yam what he yam!
#PopeyeTheSailorManDay
Popeye is the seeming underdog with bulging forearms, a mean uppercut, and a love of canned spinach. He is a defender of the weak and protector of those he loves. As the embodiment of strength and fitness, Popeye inspires us all to work hard, care for others, be persistent, and stay strong to the finish. Of course, all with the help of a hefty amount of spinach. In 2024, we are celebrating 95 years of this iconic figure, and the timeless inspiration Popeye has brought to billions of people.
Popeye was created by Elzie Crisler (E.C) Segar and made his first appearance in the comic strip "Thimble Theatre" on January 17, 1929. Originally created as a minor character, Popeye quickly became a super star. By 1938, the comic changed its name to “Popeye,” creating one of the most iconic cultural comic strips of all time.

Popeye has appeared in 1000s of comic strips, over 600 cartoon episodes, and over 100 books since his creation. Today, he has over 9.6 million followers on social media! Popeye is ingrained in pop culture and is one of the most recognizable and beloved cartoon characters in the world.
15 Fun Facts about Popeye®
Popeye is 10 years younger than Olive Oyl! He walked on to her strip, “Thimble Theatre,” as a bit character in 1929 and became so popular the strip was eventually renamed “Popeye.”
Before spinach became the source of Popeye’s super strength, his power came from rubbing the head of a magical Whiffle Hen named Bernice!
Popeye is known as Braccio di Ferro (“Iron Arm”) in Italy, Karl Alfred in Sweden, and Skipper Skraek ("Terror of the Sea") in Denmark.
Popeye made his silver screen debut on July 14, 1933 appearing in the Betty Boop cartoon entitled "Popeye the Sailor." The cartoon was produced by Fleischer Studios and distributed by Paramount Pictures.
The song "I'm Popeye the Sailor Man" was released in 1933. Composed by Sammy Lerner, the song gave birth to one of Popeye’s most famous catch phrases “I’m strong to da finich ‘cause I eats me spinach.”
Popeye is recognized for his influence on America's spinach consumption, so much so that Crystal City, TX, the Spinach Capital of the World, erected a statue in his honor in 1937.
The Popeye Village in Malta was developed for the 1980 Popeye movie starring Robin Williams. The village still exists today and has grown into a major tourist attraction in the Maltese Islands.
Popeye has inspired many iconic pop-artists over the year, including Andy Warhol (1961), Roy Lichtenstein (1961) and Jeff Koons (2002).
In Summer 1976, Tokyo based Magazine House launches the “Popeye” magazine. The magazine was the first fashion and lifestyle magazine to be published in Japan that targets young, Japanese men. The magazine is named “Popeye” because the creator’s son was a fan.
In 1957, Popeye’s balloon first appeared in the Macy’s Day parade. Interestingly, Olive Oyl became the first female balloon to join the parade in the early 1980’s.
Popeye was featured as the Google Doodle in 2009 to honor creator E.C. Segar’s birthday.
Popeye is a clean ocean advocate and ambassador for ocean conservation and clean up organization known as The SeaCleaners.
Chester, IL, the birthplace of Popeye creator, E.C. Segar, honors hometown hero the Popeye & Friends Character Trail. Every year, granite statues representing the wide cast of characters from Segar’s Thimble Theatre cartoon strips are added to the trail throughout the city.
Good Housekeeping’s Nutrition Lab awarded Popeye the “Good Housekeeping Nutritionist Approved Emblem” in their January/February 2024 issue to celebrate his decades-long commitment to healthy eating, fitness as well as his efforts in ocean conservation. Popeye is the first "person" to receive this honor.

If you’re seeing this on 22 February 2022, 22/2/22, listen up, because this could be a big day for you. For weeks, social media users have been fizzing with excitement for today’s date, which is being described as Twosday.
This is because it is the 22nd day of the 2nd month of the year 2022, and it also happens to fall on a Tuesday, the second day of the week. Anticipation of today’s date has also dispersed outside of social media. Kanye West, now known as Ye, is hosting a listening party for his upcoming album, Donda 2 , in Miami today.
The rapper has been teasing the date on his Instagram for weeks, posting a picture of a burning house – which is thought to represent his childhood home in Chicago – with the numbers 2, 22, 22 written across it in black, the first “22” appearing second as this is how Americans stylise dates.
Elsewhere, if you type today’s date into Google, the search engine will shower your screen with confetti and present a message saying “Happy Twosday 2 you”.
Additionally, the Atlantis resort in Bahamas is celebrating the occasion by offering its guests 22 per cent off on hotel rooms, starting at $222. In keeping with the theme, stays must be a minimum of two nights long.
Does Today’s Date, 22/2/22, Hold Any Significance?
According to the US National Weather Service, the date falling on a Tuesday is so rare that it won’t happen again for another 400 years, until 2422.
The date is special not only because it is a palindrome – it reads the same forward as it does backwards – but because it will be the same no matter what part of the world you’re in or the date format your country uses.
Numerologists, who study sequences of numbers and pertain spiritual significance from them, say the repetition of the number 2 is a symbol of balance, hope and creative endeavours, and presents an opportunity to “level up” your spiritual journey.
Larissa Martincic, a popular numerologist who has more than 400,000 followers on TikTok, said people should use this date to “plant intentions and manifest”.

Goldstein worked closely with Lautner and Duncan Nicholson, who took over after Lautner's death in 1994.[10] Nicholson is now the chief architect. "I wanted to remake the house exactly as John [Lautner] would have wanted it, and to introduce technology that didn't exist 30 years ago", Goldstein explained.
The property next door to his also had a Lautner-designed house on it, which Goldstein bought and tore down to build a party house, tennis court and office. He continues to make improvements.[12] In 2016, Goldstein promised that the house eventually will become the property of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
The residence has also been featured in a number of movies, including Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle, French Exit, and The Big Lebowski."

The Traveling Bird Feeder 2 - Relax With Squirrels & Birds (4K, 1 Hour)
Movie Squirrels 20.4K subscribers Relax with wild animals for one hour and listen to the calming sound of birds. Perfect as cat & dog TV or as relaxing background TV. In this series, we roam about in Norwegian nature with a mobile bird feeder ( a sled filled with delicious nuts, seeds & fruit ), feeding wild squirrels and birds. This is the second episode of The Traveling Bird Feeder, now in 4K.
Location: This video was recorded in South Norway. Both locations in this video are very close to where we normally feed birds and squirrels, therefore this sled is simply a bonus for them and not something they rely on.
Weather: It has been a particularly warm winter here in South Norway. Snow melts away almost as fast as it arrives, as you will see in this episode of The Traveling Bird Feeder.
Video Notes: We have increased the quality to 4K. The only downside to this is that we will not be able to zoom in on single animals in the sled by cropping the main camera footage as we did in the first episode. We, therefore, have to rely on B-Roll and cameras in the sled for closeups this time.
Audio Notes: We do our best to record as good audio as possible with the skills and equipment we have. But audio may be a bit different between videos, as many things affect the end-result, including the following:
- How loud birds sing at the given time (which is related to both weather and time of year among other things)
- natural noise (like wind, rivers, rain, snow, etc.)
- human noise (like planes, cars, machines, chainsaws, yelling, etc.)
We try to keep a balance between keeping the audio as authentic as possible, while simultaneously removing as much human noise as possible. This means that all audio is recorded in the same area as the video, and within the same week as the video. but not necessarily at the exact same time.
