When it comes to food, theres probably nobody in the world who enjoys everything about food as much as me. Now ofcourse im slightly exagerrating a bit, but in regards to my father who is ESTJ, yes...he does enjoy food and does enjoy cooking. But theres a difference, his Si is like i've been saying before...about comfort and how the food or the process of him is making him feel internally and subjectively. How it -calms- him. My Se, is actually enjoying the actual tastes and and wonderful smells and textures and shapes. Im definitely more into the moment. Its the same thing with everything else, like music, fashion, or health for example. I don't actually "ignore" Si completely, although its my ignoring fuction. My Si is strong, but I ignore it in the sense that, sure I like to sit back and relax and revel in how the food is making me feel (Si), but I'd rather much like to ENJOY and EXPERIENCE the actual food first and foremost (Se).
Si is reflection, Se is experiencing.
