Actually, there wasn't anything greater before.
The inventor of sliced bread (name escapes me) was a shameless self promoter, and went around saying
"This is the greatest thing since I invented sliced bread."
Of course, this earned him the immediate distain of anyone he spoke to, however, for some odd reason the phrase managed to pick up.

The greatest thing before sliced bread was the bread its self.
