Many comedians, as well as celebrities, stepped up in the debate. Andy Lassner who is the executive producer of The Ellen DeGeneres Show and Game of Games tweeted that the woman should be arrested for putting so much spinach in the sandwich whereas comedian Donni Saphire said that it looks good as hell. Another user reacted by comparing the situation to that of the famous cartoon show Popeye. Gondelman while revealing people how he, at last, consumed the sandwich wrote that he ate it by pulling out all the spinach and eating it like a fully separate salad with a fork. Catch all the reactions here: 

Bodega also said that he doesn't think that it was too much spinach to eat, but it was definitely too much spinach to put on a sandwich. Talking about the debate he said, that he enjoyed the people joking that his bodega woman was trying to kill him with contaminated romaine. The responses have been evenly divided with a slight skew toward agreeing that there was a little too much spinach on the sandwich, he added.
