Later they go out for a superposition of chocolate and vanilla ice cream.

I’m pretty sure there’s a good amount of biological chemistry that relies on Quantum Mechanics so it’s unlikely the human body doesn’t have any. But there’s nothing that would impact the brain and the way we think.
Fun fact neurons are surprisingly binary, they send signals through discrete pulses with different timings. This is ironic because computer neural networks operate more analog with continuous values than real neural networks do. Because of this (mostly)discrete on or off behavior it would actually make the signal of neurons more resistant to the random noise and tiny effects of quantum mechanics.
If QM wanted to affect how we think, it would need to be deliberately amplified in a way we don’t see anywhere.
