Social media is obsessed with an old study from 2016 that found you're more likely to be a psychopath if you enjoy things that are BITTER. Stuff like black coffee, dark chocolate, and gin-and-tonics.
It looked at the food-and-drink preferences of 1,000 Americans, and at personality traits like how narcissistic, aggressive, and sadistic they were.
Â
It found people who like bitter stuff are more likely to have the types of "anti-social" qualities psychopaths have. And they were more likely to take pleasure in seeing other people suffer.
Â
If you're listening to this while enjoying a square of dark chocolate and washing it down with black coffee, don't worry TOO much. Liking that stuff doesn't always mean you're a psycho.
They said to take the results with a grain of salt, because it's just one study. That said, experts think 1 in 22 people are technically psychopaths. So there's a decent chance you or someone you know is a psycho.Â
