A friend of mine just told me that in German(y) it is totally unpolite not to say "Gesundheit" when someone sneezes.
We even sometimes say Gesundheit in the UK too (one of the few modern German words in English usage - others include doppelganger, schadenfreude and zeitgeist - do excuse my spelling!).
But for those who DO reply with something like "bless you", etc., "Gesundheit" is not only the correct response but one I always heard in my own family, which strangely spoke no German.

(2 & 3) You said it because you're taught to say "gesundheit" after someone sneezes, and you didn't mean anything specific.
Gesundheit has been found in English since the 1910s, but is probably earlier; even the first example suggests that it was already a conventional response to a sneeze.
It is chiefly an Americanism that originated in German-speaking areas but is now widespread.
