Ants have powerful biting and chewing type of mouth-parts. They can cut and chew a variety of items, and carry the food particles to their nests.

I am not absolutely sure but I saw a nature film when ants were making a meal of a dead bird.

It depends on the type of ant. Some eat seeds, other invertebrates, carrion (dead animal matter), fruit, fungus and some even have herds of aphids to produce honeydew for them.
