A novel departure from the regular procedure of cartoon, this strikes a new note for an entertaining short. Standard photography is used at the start and finish to illustrate what spinach will do for the young. A child is shown buying a copy of a Popeye comic-book and later is roughed up by an older boy. As he sits on the ground crying, Popeye, on the book's cover, comes to life and shows him a few of his exploits in past pictures. A few shots from some old efforts are used to illustrate how spinach has always revived the sailor. The child is shown again eating spinach and encountering his former opponent.
