I had a girl describe how she remebers things as like the memory playing on a screen in her mind and i realised then that people didnt say they 'see it in their mind' figuratively

Not even playing on a screen. I can close my eyes and visualise apples in a pack at the super market. I can imagine myself tearing the pack open, I can see the apple in level 1 detail of the OP. I can inspect it, it's green with yellowish spotsand imperfections, a black and brown stem, it has a waxy smoothness and I can visualise myself lifting my arm and taking a bite. The next part I lose vision, I can imagine feeling it on my front teeth before taking a bite. Its not a physical feeling, but like a memory of the feeling. And I can imagine taking that bite and then moving the piece to my right cheek to chew. On the first bite with my molars it cuts through the apple flesh but not the skin. Further chewing is required. Now I kindve lose imagination of the texture but the taste I can imagine that sweet acidic taste of apples. And that's about it figuratively speaking

I wish I could experience this superpower.
