Name some others then? Not GP but it seems obvious to me that anything about fire or cooking is ranking highly on 'sensory pleasures'. Primeval stuff we can be quite detached from.

I mean I don’t think I need to be crass here but nothing beats the feeling of typing on a mechanical keyboard.

I prepare a meal and eat it. Let's assume I'm eating it alone, to avoid bringing in the pleasures of socialization. Sensory pleasures include: the smell + appearance of the ingredients; cutting vegetables with a well-sharpened knife; the sound of food cooking; the smell of food cooking; the visual enjoyment of the completed food; the visual enjoyment of a well-plated meal; the taste, textures, and smells of the meal; the contrast between the meal and any beverages; the feeling of satisfaction from having eaten a good meal. I would say that most of these are at least as pleasurable as interacting with the flame of a gas stove, and often far more pleasurable.
I’m not asking this to be snarky but:
1) In your entire life?
2) In the entire life of many people?
