No that's dumb. There is a kind of ant that store honey dew from aphids and things inside another ant... Living pots they hang from the top of the nest all the other ants go by drink this sugar and leave. Sugar comes from a plant called a sugar cane plant.

Sugar ants in Australia collect nectar and feed it to special ants in the nest who store it in their bodies. The ants' abdomens swell to the size of a marble and they are known colloquially as sugarbags. If you dig up the nest, you can pick up the ants and bite them, releasing the nectar into your mouth. The nectar does not dry and become viscous to make honey as it does in a beehive but remains liquid.

In a way... Years ago I read an outdoor survival book that suggested harvesting ant abdomens (ant butts) as a sugar substitute. I guess that means that they're sweet. Mmmm.

no, but they like sugar. And silkworms do make silk.
