What does ant eat and what is its mode of feeding?

Ants eat anything they can get there feet on, including fruits, other ants, leaves, crumbs and picnic food!

The way they eat is by their jaws - they feel and sense the food with feelers, pick it up with their gripped jaws, and taken to the nest. They eat it by first turning it into liquid in a special sack behind the jaw, where its strong saliva breaks it down.
