Are sensors more likely to be addicted to food?

I want to know this because I work with somebody who is constanly talking about food (the smell, taste, how it looks). I love food but I am not obsessed with it. Can some sensors be this way?

For some reason I always imagine the SPs to be the most likely to become addicted to food. Some combination of Ji and Se - this sort of self indulgence. I don't have anything solid to base that on just yet, though. Intuition I guess

Me too. I have a feeling that my supervisor is an SP. When we start to work in the morning the first she wonders is what is she going to have for lunch. Then she talks to me about which restaurant she went during the weekend, and all the selection of food she had. She describes food with such joy, to me on the other hand it just food. I like how it tastes and smell but I don't think so much about it.

That's more of a Feeler thing, but especially xSFx. They become dependent on the physical sensations/settings/aesthetics and eat emotionally.

Considering Ns have suppressed S functions and typically using sensing in more unhealthy ways, it's just easily reversed though.
For one, INTJs under stressed are known to overindulge in sensory experiences. (selectively of course, junk food, alcohol, whatever. A feeling of "I deserve this much" or something)

But yeah, I admit it does seem more likely to be Se users than Si users.

Eat emotioanlly, that the best to describe it. My supervisor suffers from diabetes, but she loves to overindulge food. She thinks about food 24/7. It may be a thing that all types can do, but I think that some types with the Sensing function are more prone to this. My parents are Sensors and they are not like this, but mom is a good cook, and dad sometimes can make a good homemade sandwich and pizza. :) An INFP can be a good cook too but I am just saying.

Yeah. STs usually eat to live, not live to eat. I hate eating, I only do it to survive.

I love food and am a fat kid at heart even if I'm not fat anymore. My friends always make fun of me when I describe my food (I go into great detail) and enjoy it more than them, or so it seems.

I love food... but addicted? No...

As I understand it, hunger, thirst, tiredness, etc., are associated with Si.

For my own part, I completely forget to eat for long periods.
