Used to - use to?

Used to - use to?

In an English File placement test there is a sentence:

I never ___ eat so much.
a) used to b) didn �t use to c) use to d) didn �t use to

The answer in the answer sheet is "use to". My mind went blank. I don �t understand how that can be grammatically correct. I would say: "I never used to eat so much".
