If you’re looking forward to tucking into the G&Ts tonight, we have some bad news for you: Chances are you’re a psychopath.
According to a recent study, people who enjoy bitter foods and drinks also possess more malevolent personality traits.
The research, conducted by psychologists from Innsbruck University in Austria, consisted of two experiments carried out on 953 people.
Men and women were presented with a list of foods and beverages including bitter, sour, salty and sweet items.
They were asked to rate each item out of six, then given a personality questionnaire to fill out.
This involved questions to gauge their levels of emotional stability, “Machiavellianism” (being so focused on individual interests that they will manipulate, deceive and exploit others to achieve their goals), aggression and “tendency towards everyday sadism.”
