You’re gonna die.
So let’s talk about that.
Nobody teaches you what to do when someone dies. The paperwork, the funeral home, the things left behind: all of it lands on you at the worst possible moment. But Worm Food is here so you don’t have to start from zero when that day comes. Consider us your head start.

What Worm Food Is (and Isn’t)
- A prep course. Not a crisis line.
- Worm Food is here for all your death related questions BEFORE you need it.

- Sometimes funny, sometimes morbid, never takes itself or the subject of death too seriously.
- A place for the planners, the procrastinators, and anyone who has ever opened their parents’ “arrangements” folder and immediately closed it again.
