Notworms, also known as Tu'ba'lu Squib'r'ish, are the mysterious material that composes Mr. Spook's Fork. It comes from outside the Beanworld, and also forms the substance of the Goofy Jerks, who sometimes call the stuff "hardware." Notworms have the strange property of adapting their function according to those who touch it. When the Goofy Service Jerks tried to steal Mr. Spook's fork, they caused it to come apart. The disassociated Notworm pieces then fell limp until the Beans touched them, at which time they regained their original shape.
