My go to anecdote on this is when I returned to Switzerland after several years in the US and walked by a bakery displaying a sign advertising a "Pain Surprise".

If anybody ever opens an S&M themed bakery, the problem will be accentuated.

Not strictly S&M :) but fresh out of the oven Sangak bread of Iran can offer a "pain surprise" followed by culinary pleasure! Picking those hot pebbles off the back of the flatbread on the way home in the morning is a cherished memory of my childhood in Iran.

Oh that bakery has a gimmick where they throw a loaf of bread at your face when you enter.

Spoiler! :-(

Now it won't be a surprise.

At least the pain remains.

Forwarding this to a friend of mine who owns a BDSM-themed coffeeshop...
