Question

People watched him, and they began to buy and eat a lot more spinach. People helped sell 33 percent more spinach than before! Spinach became a necessary part of many people’s diets. Even some children who hated the taste began to eat the vegetable.

　　Many people thought that the iron in spinach made Popeye strong, but this is not tree. Spinach does not have any more iron than any other green vegetable. People only thought spinach had a lot of iron because the people who studies the food made a mistake. In the 1890s, a group of people studied what was inside the vegetable. This group wrote the number wrong, and everyone accepted it. Today, we know that there is something else in spinach which the body needs? folic acid.
