the steal can was a symbol of strength, and his ability to squish the steal can open with his bare hand was a chance to signal his upcoming strength. A bag just would not do well at symbolizing toughness, and it would not show off much strength to open it with bare hands.

I wish I could give him that much credit, but based on his grammar and rhetoric, he may not even be bright enough to read the newspaper and hear about the e coli outbreak. I think it's more likely that he probably just ate canned spinach because it was the easiest thing to carry all the time and it would have a long expiration period.

No, Popeye ate canned spinach because fresh spinach wilted too quickly on board ship.

No, they didn't have bagged and washed baby spinach back then and who wants to take the time to wash and prep sandy spinach??? Especially when you are in a hurry to save the day?
