Simply placing as few as four live ants into a container of milk provides enough microbes, enzymes and acids to kickstart the fermentation process that creates yogurt.
Today, most yogurts are produced by fermenting milk using commercially made starters. However, the industrialisation of the process has meant that countless traditional fermentation practices from around the world are overlooked.
The rest is paywalled.

I’m sure my imagination is worse than reality, but I’m afraid to read the article and find out.
I assume it’s either ant vomit, feces, or something that’s fermented… Possibly all three.
It’s not that bad. A traditional yogurt-making practice is to put a couple ants into some milk. The microorganisms and enzymes that the ants introduce helps kick off the fermentation of the milk, turning it into yogurt.

So do they like… float? in the milk? 🤢
Shelve it with that animal shit coffee
Will there be fruit on the bottom? Or did the ants eat all the fruit?
The ants are the fruit. They’re nature’s raisins!
Would alien ants work? I know there used to be farms
Fortunately, Ender and Bean handled that for us.
Do they have to be Greek ants?
Aunt is Thea in Greek
Aunt is Thea in Greek
Theía (Θεία) is “aunt”
Theá (Θεά) is “goddess”
So obviously yoghurt comes from goddesses.

Happy Cakeday! 🍰🎂
I’m a little upset no one told me ants were making the yogart this whole time.

Sweetened by screams of four drowning ants
Yeah, that’s gonna be a ‘no’ from me, dog.
