Ants differ in how safe it is to eat them. Most are OK, but have a sharp taste. Some kinds have been used instead of pepper (I would rather do without pepper, but if it suits you, all right).
Some kinds are not especially poisonous, but they have a very bad taste and smell when they get hurt, so you wouldn't want to eat them. Some kinds are quite poisonous, but I never have heard of anyone eating enough to get poisoned. Some kinds, like bulldog ants and fire ants sting badly when hurt, so you had better make sure they are dead before eating any in your food. Once they are dead, it would take a lot of ants in your food to hurt you though. Generally, if your candy bar or sandwich has ants on it, blow off as many them as you can, make sure that there are not many live ants left on the food, and go ahead and eat it.
It varies in poison, from the fire ant to the sugar ant, there are many different ants you can consume. I hope this has helped you.
Thanks,
Isabella

yes you can and ants were eaten by cavemen.
Yes. They can pinch/bite you though so watch out, try removing the head before you eat it.
There are a few things that could happen if you eat something ants have been on. You could get very sick.
it is bad to eat ants as some ants are poisinous and also eating ants can make you ill as your body is not used to eating them i would deffinatly not reccomend eating ants!
That would be disgusting and you might get sick, but it's possible.
It has been said that most frogs do not like to eat ants of any kind. Frogs that are known to eat ants (or fire ants) are cane toads or bull frogs.
They eat mossly harvestor ants( red ants) but subsidize their diet with a few termites and a few other insects. Fire ants are bad, they don't eat fire ants but fire ants are killing the harvestor ants
They are decomposers because they are so low on the food chain, that they would not turn down an opportunity for food. However, ants also eat other types of food besides other dead organisms.
Birds love to eat ants, and other insects and Spiders. Also, ants and termites are natural enemies, so they will eat each other. Garden snakes will eat ants and bugs too.
they like to eat human food crumbs, like, cereal, bread, chips, and so on.
Ants usually eat sweets.The natural food that ants eat are oil, plants and dead insects.

Mainly Ants and termites
They usually eat leaves, soil, or, if they're bigger ants, they can even eat other smaller ants. Ants also often eat human food that the human dropped, and even big insects, if the ants find it dead.

Ants are scavengers and therfore, ants eat things that are already dead such as dead insects.
