All those who have a sweet tooth can simply be proud of it as it also means that they have a good disposition.

Scientists found that a liking for sweeter foods points to the willingness and flexibility of a person.


Brian Meiers, a psychology professor at Gettysburg College said, "It is striking that helpful and friendly people are considered �sweet' because taste would seem to have little in common with personality or behavior. Our taste studies controlled for positive mood so the effects we found are not due to the happy or rewarding feeling one may have after eating a sweet food."
