A particular liking1 for bitter-tasting foods and drinks such as coffee and tonic2 water could mean you have psychopathic tendencies.

对苦味的饮食——如咖啡和奎宁水——有特别偏爱的人很有可能具有心理变态的倾向。
 
Psychologists have found that those with a preference for bitter tastes were more likely to exhibit signs of Machiavellianism, sadism, and narcissism3.
 
That is, they were more prone4 to being duplicitous and self-serving, cold-hearted and lacking in empathy, vain and selfish, and more likely to derive5 pleasure from other people's pain.
 
The findings of the study provide the 'first empirical evidence that bitter taste preferences are linked to malevolent6 personality traits,' said the researchers from Innsbruck University in Austria, who studied 1,000 people in two separate experiments.
 
'The results suggest that how much people like bitter-tasting foods and drinks is stably tied to how dark their personality is.'
 
Bitter foods include unsweetened cocoa, black coffee, radishes and the quinine in tonic water.
