  • $\begingroup$ What do you mean by "spinach"? Is it a substitution for another word? Is it a metaphor? $\endgroup$ Oct 7, 2016 at 21:42

Here is the answer -

I am a cellphone charger enter image description here

Most of my friends are black.

Yes, most of them are black shows a single search result enter image description here

I am someones strength while someone is my strength and we all are dependent on each other.

I give power/strength to the cell phones and the electricity gives power/strength to me

I have a tail. Sometimes long sometimes short.

Self explanatory

I have two teeth.

Again self explanatory. enter image description here

I am a spinach for rich and for poor.

I provide power to both cheaper and costlier cell phones.

Things might stop if I do not exist.

Self explanatory. No battery no cell phones.

Some of us glow in dark.

You need to be aware of me.

I'd say it's

a watch/hands of a watch

Most of my friends are black

When I think of clock hands I imagine them black and most of them are black I think

I am someones strength while someone is my strength and we all are dependent on each other

Could be a reference to time and work. You get money for work/time and we depend on time to finish tasks

I have a tail. Sometimes long sometimes short.

A pocket watch with a chain. Or a grandfather clock

I have two teeth

One hand for hours and one for minutes. Some even have one for seconds

I am a spinach for rich and for poor.

Could be a hint towards "spin" as the hands of a clock are spinning. Also time is the same for rich and poor

Things might stop if I do not exist.

Again, time.

Some of us glow in dark.

I've seen watches with hands that can glow in the night. There are some special colours which can do that

  • $\begingroup$ I have added a hint. Spinach is a metaphor. Hence your answer goes void. Things might stop if I do not exist"- You answered watch but here you are using Time. Again false. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ Also, when I say "most" it means most.. Warches are not black mostly. Steel watches are hardly black. So this is again false. $\endgroup$

Is it

SUN

Most of my friends are black.

Friends here could be people more exposed to sun. They get tanned and are black.

I am someones strength while someone is my strength and we all are dependent on each other.

Sun helps with Vitamin D necessary for bones and hence strength.

I have a tail. Sometimes long sometimes short.

Could be the rays.

I have two teeth.

Not sure.

I am a spinach for rich and for poor.

Spinach here could refer to energy source like for Popeye. So, SUN is a source of energy.

Things might stop if I do not exist.

For sure.

Some of us glow in dark.

Since, sun is a star and considering one location, some stars can be seen in the dark glowing while SUN will be absent.
