I got this from a post I made on the thread indoor composting...I hope this will help you decide on what to give your worms.

Foods that your worms will love include:

fruit and vegetable peelings and scraps
leftover vegetables (cooked)
Eggshells which can be grounded
Legumes and nuts without salt
coffee grounds and teabags
rice and pasta (plain)
olive oil, soybean oil and other vegetable oils

they don't like to eat these stuff:

salt and salty foods, vinegar
alcohol
meat, dairy, animal fats
citrus
onion peels
fruit pits
rotten fruits
