a riddle

Here`s a riddle which always causes much consternation. It was posed to a hundred Infant school children, and 85% got it right. it was posed to a hundred University Graduates and 17% got it correct.

What is more powerful than God but more evil than the Devil?
The rich want it but the poor have it, and if you eat it, you die.

Think like a child.

I`ve only ever known one person get this right, straight away.
