Everyone seems to have concluded that the ants liked the Coca-Cola because it has more sugar. Actually, it has less sugar. But it tastes sweeter than Pepsi when flat, because it has more salt. The ants preferred Pepsi at the start because it was less carbonated, making it sweeter.
I saw some science question in middle school that showed ants like salty food more than sweet food; no idea if it was accurate since it was a school question, but interesting none the less.
And whats funny is that this makes sense outside of ants as well. Pepsi was made to be drinken cold and out of the fridge, while Coke was made to be drank warm and (likely) flat. The reason for this is that Coke was made before refrigerators were common household objects, and Pepsi was not.
It's not that they can do it exclusively, but that superficial tension at that size is stronger than fluidity so a droplet will not break by itself. Still, I agree, it's a magical and fascinating sight.
Imagine if you were chilling with your friends and a massive pipette showed up out of the sky and filled your pool with beer. That’s how these ants felt.
They're mindless drones made to keep their colony alive, sharing is merely out of necessity, not kindness or good will. Don't out feelings in insects which are basically nature's robots.
(READ FULL COMMENT BEFORE YALL START BARKING IN COMMENTS). OLD COMMENT:(They like coca cola more (I THINK) because it has more sugar than Pepsi, therefore it's so addictive to drink that they'll even drink large quantities. I hope this information is helpful!). E. NEW COMMENT: Yes now unlike my last theory Pepsi might have more sugar than coke. It's still has something in it to make it more addictive.. and yes before probably coca cola had cocaine in it, but rn it has caffeine which is also in coffee and caffeine can make someone more alert and energetic as well as the fact that it’s in many other things, but that’s not all it could have and I myself don’t even know what these thing are but since the ants drink the coke faster than Pepsi then there has to be a substance or substance that’s so addictive to drink at a whole.

There are a lot of factors that go into an ant’s choice of food. 1. queen(Fertile or infertile) 2.Amount of larvae 3. Amount of ants 4. Type of ant 5. What they recognize as being “food”, because they won’t recognize every food as food by chemical compound alone. 6. Seasonal choices vary for each species but generally they like stickier things because it just barely solidifies and makes the perfect consistency to carry a ton of sugar. 6. Amount of food available or extractable. 7. Higher mineral levels smell good to ants. So mineral level and chemical composition. Fats and sugars are easier to digest and hence more popular overall while not effective as a stored foodsource, if you can even carry droplets of melted candy. 8. Position. Worker ants tend to prioritize other kinds of ants more than themselves or others in their role, since it’s their job to work for the good of the colony, they will choose foods that are easier to carry in large quantities. Whereas soldiers prioritize their own nutrients, and prefer to drink rather than eat for the sake of saving time from guarding the colony, rather than paying attention to how much they can carry they want quick sips of sugar and such, as I found. 9. Environment. Stress, weather, difficult circumstances, or even queen’s pheromones based on her own needs. 10. Where the pheromones are strongest and most recent.
Wow, this video is so cool! I never thought about which soda ants might prefer, but it's really interesting to see the time-lapse footage of them making their choice. Thanks for sharing this with me, it was a lot of fun to watch!
Because they are irrational animals making their decision of sharing based on instincts of keeping their entire colony alive. They NEED teamwork to survive, wich kids DON'T, as they dont need to find food and work their asses off to eat
@@charlottesmom ants are crazy. They're not just sisters, they are almost part of one single being that is the hive. They act as one single individual and will even sacrifice themselves for the hive, to ensure the queen will be able to reproduce. The technical name for this is "eusocial".

Thankyou for telling this! Actually i was trowing a party in which ants are invited so i was really tensed because i don't know which will drink they like! This helps me alot! ❤
The results might in part be stochastic, as the ants leave a "trail pheromone", potentially amplifying the slightest random offset in the beginning. This experiment would need far more replicates.
Absolutely brilliant this is the sort of video I love as I often spend ages watching ants when I in my garden . Running back and forth over the paving sometimes hauling crumbs from my biscuit 🤣. The close up photography here is wonderful.
It's not about having enough force to break through the surface tension, but rather the fact that the surface will just move out of the way where the ant tries to apply its force because of the tension. Try pinching a sufficiently inflated and large balloon between two fingers. As you try to move your fingers in place the surface is pushed away by those fingers not leaving anything to pinch anymore. So, I agree that surface tension might play a role in an ant's decision to take on one or the other droplet.
I find it interesting that during the first hour they went for the Pepsi and after that they greatly preferred the Coke. I guess ants aren't into carbonation.
They're designed to seek out sugar as an energy source. Carbonation doesn't really have any benefits for them so that makes sense that they go toward where they sense "more" sugar.
to me at 1:24 there's this smaller ant that gave me the idea of only checking what were they, (like an official inspector) since it analyzed both and went back to report. A little later they preferred coca cola
The real test would be McDonald's sprite. I'm guessing any ants that survive first contact will develop super powers. Just a theory though.

this is the first 4-minute video that has made me subscribe to a YT channel, very cool :D . As for the actual content...

I'd like to see if you could document one's that actually tried both & if they come back for more which they'd come back to. Some might just hit the first one they come to instead of actually trying both & then deciding which it prefers.

@@Zector01 I would hate for somebody to design a bridge I needed to drive my car across based on a "there definitely would be." with out data to back it up. I think what you meant to say is there would likely be a correlation.
if you do, then it's due to open/ accessible food for them somewhere &/or the crumbs or foodstains left behind (& even for me a person who barely uses their kitchen area somehow it gets dirty all the time, gotta stay on top of it & thankfully that part they've never shown up in) smth is calling them via their scent-sensors, which has happened to my TV "sitting area" a few times cuz it's riight next to a ground flr window & one of their explorers discovered where I keep my things meant to be accessible for me 😅 but they will move on once the biggest attraction is not reachable to them anymore so try some traps etc too ☆
I love how the ants can put their tiny little legs on pepsi/coke droplets without sinking in that made it look like some kind of airbag. they can probably walk on the top of pepsi/coke droplets without sinking too.

@@Zector01 I would hate for somebody to design a bridge I needed to drive my car across based on a "there definitely would be." with out data to back it up. I think what you meant to say is there would likely be a correlation.
I love Pe and Coca. They are so delicious.
Yea but Fant is better. I still recommend mountain

Nice experiment bro 🥰♥️
Never in my life did I think I would find ants cute, but here we are 🐜
Pay close attention you can see their abdomens grow larger as they drink. I don’t think people could tell the difference if not for a magnified view
I was gonna say it would be funny if they eschewed both of them and went for some root beer instead.
this music is awesome, where can i find it? what's it called?
These ants fr touching liquid like it’s sponge! What an interesting size to be alive in.
This is the sort of video you run into when you should be sleeping
2:55 in the morning, you are correct, sir.
I love how they take little bites out of the water 😂
I like how the ants spit out the sodas in the end.
The abbreviation “Pe” is so damn funny.
Can you imagine coca cola using this as advertisement?.
Hey look at this even 🐜 like our formula 😁
I like how they were sharing with each other ❤
One of the two ads before this video was for Pepsi Max..
Damn I didn’t know they had a different jelly version for ants
Why do I think I have a ton more ants lounging in our kitchen countertop in any given day than in that test? Lol
it's not like those are made in a kitchen, the ants that appear in these are placed there
if you do, then it's due to open/ accessible food for them somewhere &/or the crumbs or foodstains left behind (& even for me a person who barely uses their kitchen area somehow it gets dirty all the time, gotta stay on top of it & thankfully that part they've never shown up in) smth is calling them via their scent-sensors, which has happened to my TV "sitting area" a few times cuz it's riight next to a ground flr window & one of their explorers discovered where I keep my things meant to be accessible for me 😅 but they will move on once the biggest attraction is not reachable to them anymore so try some traps etc too ☆
Loved how the ants shared most people don’t even do that so precious
I, for one, welcome our new insect overlords :)
If i had a pizza 10x bigger than me id probably share it too
It looks like the ant are eating hamburgers
I'd would love to see this as a real ad.
3:10
Ant: I’ll take a coke
“Is Pepsi ok?”
Ant: *sigh* “yes”
no coke...pepsi
@@engrownhare2427 No
Coca Cola
Um... excuse me?
Coca Colaa ayayyayayaya
I love how the ants can put their tiny little legs on pepsi/coke droplets without sinking in that made it look like some kind of airbag. they can probably walk on the top of pepsi/coke droplets without sinking too.
Verdade
Ants liking is directly proportional to sugar content in the drinks 😁😁
Me who can't even buy a bottle of one of those:
Lucky ants
coca and pepsi aren't even that good tho
@@lav-kitty we buy them for the brain and taste buds not for those other organs.
@@enderdragoncrafter2412 and who said I was talking about it being unhealthy? I was talking about it being bad, I genuinely don't like it
@@lav-kitty I'm still wondering why OP can't buy one of these!
@@lorireed8046 maybe because of their parents? money? some diet? idk
Looks like they originally had a thing for Pepsi, then realized coca cola was right next to the pepsi
