It depends about the type of ant, and the season. I would say both are equally attractive, but the one with more moisture may be more palatable. so cheese.
Think of ants more simply. ants are only after 3 types of food sources. Carbohydrates (normaly sugas), Protene (Normally other insects, meats) and water ( foods may contain water such as Soda, but ants may be found around a kitchen sink mainly for the water.)
They lack the complex livers of mammals and cannot convert protene to energy. it is only used to create more ants. So they need a lot of it.
