TL:DR
Sat pricing needs to happen eventually. The problems for the seller are if their costs (rent, flour, electricity) are in fiat there could be times they are operating at a loss, while people are buying up their cheap bread & reselling it again.
Maybe for other products this might not be the case. I'd have to think more about that.
Another option is to round up/down to the nearest "whole" number ex: 4000, 5000. This would stop the sat/$ margin from running away in either direction.
That's exactly the problem. All of their fixed monthly costs become variable costs when priced in Bitcoin. This is going to be a gradual process and Bitcoin activists will have to lead the way by being willing to take occasional losses.
