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.
