  小孩喜欢吃甜食怕蛀牙,大人喜欢吃甜食怕发胖!不过,科学家研究发现,爱吃甜食的人会更加讨人喜欢,性格更加友善,为人更加大方。怎么样?是不是信心大增?吃甜食,人变“甜”,吃货们的好日子到了!

  People with Sweet Teeth May Be Sweeter

  Study subjects who expressed a preference for sweet over spicy tastes also tended to be more agreeable.

  Parents are often fretting over what all that candy will do to their children. Well, it might just make them sweeter, because people who prefer sugary snacks actually seem to be more kind. So says a study in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology.

  We often describe personality or behavior with taste-related terms. Think of someone who’s bitter, or sour or maybe even a little picante. But do our tastes in food really reflect who we are?

  Scientists looked for a link between a love of sweet things and the tendency to begenerous or generally agreeable. College students answered a series of questions about their character—whether, for example, they’re soft-hearted or enjoy insulting people. Then they rated their liking for a variety of foods, from cake and ice cream to cranberries,sauerkraut and salsa. And it turns out that kids with a sweet tooth see themselves as sweet.

  And maybe they are. Those that liked candy more than crackers were more likely to volunteer around campus or for additional studies. So if you’re looking to score a little milk of human kindness, try putting out a plate of cookies.
