Notes

• Although the Crimson is considered a counterpart to the Corruption, using Worm Food in the Crimson will not do anything.
  • It is, however, still possible to summon the Eater of Worlds in a world that spawned with Crimson by artificially creating a Corruption biome (with at least (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) 300 / (Old-gen console and 3DS versions) 200 Corruption blocks), and then using the Worm Food within it.
