I have seven letters and am something you eat. My only anagram can hel? - Answer & Explanation | Riddle Up

Riddle

I have seven letters and am something you eat. My only anagram can help your pain. If you remove my first 2 letters I wear things down. Removing my first 3 letters is an adjective and removing my first 4 letters leaves a measure of time. What am I?

Choose an answer

A.A hot dog

B.Bacon

C.Ham

D.Sausage

Hint: It's a word with 7 letters, starting with "S".

Answer

Sausage

Why this is the answer

Sausage is a seven-letter food; dropping its first letters in stages plays with 'usage,' 'sage' (an adjective), and 'age' (a measure of time), even though the 'anagram for pain' clue is a loose fit.
