"  Sorry, single women: Even our late-night Oreo binges aren&amp;#039;t as satisfying as the ones taken ladies are sharing with their boyfriends. Researchers in Singapore have found that thinking about a romantic partner sweetens the taste of chocolate, according to a new study posted in Salon. Scientists link this back to the shared neural response to both love and sweet snacks \u2014 both activate the anterior cingulate cortex, the part of our brain that primes us to anticipate rewards. On the bright side \u2014 uh, sort of? \u2014 participants in the study who were primed to experience romantic jealousy did not report a more bitter or unsavory experience with candy or chocolate. So keep housing those Reese&amp;#039;s Peanut Butter Cups while you troll your ex&amp;#039;s Facebook! I know I will. Follow Anna on Twitter.
