I'll take a shot. "Detritus" is the easier part: it's decaying plant and animal matter. So the worms are eating leaves and stuff after it's started breaking down.
"Dirt" is a little more difficult because it doesn't have as crisp of a definition. Usually when people say "dirt" in this context, they mean "soil," but that's only a little better. The relevant definition for soil is, "the upper layer of earth that may be dug or plowed and in which plants grow."
That detritus gets broken down by bacteria and becomes soil even without worms, but worms do basically the same thing faster. Plus their moving around helps loosen the soil, which also is helpful for growing plants.

That would explain a lot : Leto II became a worm because he ate dirt (spice - and a worm BTW)

Disclaimer this is a pure guess.

He picked off the decomposing organic debris from the word and pooped the letters out. Now if only we knew what detritus was.

A single gram of uranium contains about 20,000,000,000 calories of energy. That's enough calories to keep you alive for about 27,000 years. Eat uranium to become immortal.

what is the difference between detritus and dirt?
They're pretty similar but it seems:
Detritus - fragments of materials that have disintegrated or worn away.
Dirt - Unclean matter, soil or grime.
Close because I'm pretty sure soil is broken down rocks and stuff.
