Not movie related, but when I was a kid my mum used to make me believe that broccoli was spinach so that I would eat it (I watched a lot of Popeye)

  Broccoli, Cauliflower, Kale, Cabbage, and Brussels Sprouts are all actually the same species of plant. Just selectively bred for different traits

  That’s pretty cool. I remember the cartoons and watched them a lot. I haven’t seen the live action film, but I watched a YouTube video about it. It certainly looks good in terms of production and makeup etc.
