More evil than the devil,

And if you eat it, you'll die?

I'm glad you are taking the time to read this. All right, I recall a funny story about this riddle...

My brother once asked this exact riddle to a friend of his. After stating the answer and still confusing the boy, my brother broke it down for him -

"What is greater than God?" he asked.

"Nothing," the boy replied.

"What is more evil than the Devil?"

"Nothing."

"What do the poor have?"

"Nothing"

"What do the rich need?"

"Nothing"

"What is it that if you eat, you'll die?"

"Poison."


Apparently, that little genius just didn't get the concept.
