Never heard of it.
Can you eat it ?
No, you have to swallow it whole.
Those who espouse it claim it's food for the soul,
but they can't prove souls exist.
Is it something to read on the toilet ?
As good a place as anywhere else.
Or is it something poisonous like Plutonium or VX gas?
Yes, if taken excessively and believed, it's mind poison.
But you should read it, so you can catch the dissimulations of the
devout when they quote it at you.
Or is it just an old joke ?
It's old, but it's no joke. Belief in it has caused much bloodshed and
mayhem over the centuries.
