It's absolutely possible to deal with this by simply following the
principle of "least surprise".
In this specific case, the problem could easily have been avoided by:
a) Moving "Bukkake" to "Bukkake (Sexual Act)"
b) Making the "Bukkake" page a disambiguation page with a pointer to
"Udon" and one to the sexual activity.

I use the program LaTeX for creating math documents. Terrible terrible
things have happened as a result of oblivious googling.

Not true.
In fact, a friend of mine yelled at me about this just the
other day
because she went searching for "Bukkake Udon", which is a noodle dish
and had no idea what she was in for.
