Air conditioning in Florida is a bare necessity, right after oxygen and water. Even though this is true, husband’s all over will still make excuses. Men will live in denial for weeks before they will call an HVAC specialist. In this funny commercial we play on that fact and add a few physical gags and punchlines. One in particular is a reference to Joey from Friends and his famous meat sweats. It is a classic!
Video Advertising That Stops Your Audience In Their Scroll
We love concept advertisements like this piece we call “Meat Sweats”. In fact we already had this idea written before we had a local business that could use it. Luckily we got hooked up with All Air & Heat in Port St. John. We were able to produce this social media brand marketing video after a few minor tweaks specific to All Air & Heat.
Production took one day at a friend’s house in Rockledge. Producer Trevor Barone and Director of Photography Austin Roghelia called in favors for talent and assistance on set. For more from this commercial visit our Facebook Page.

Live Science has the following to say on Meat Sweats:
The Truth About ‘Meat Sweats,’ According to Science
As silly as they sound, “meat sweats” — the phenomenon of intense sweating that can follow an excessively meaty meal — sure seem real to those who’ve experienced them. But is there any science to back them up? Are meat sweats a real biological condition — and, if so, what makes meat so messy?
The Truth About ‘Meat Sweats,’ According to Science
These delicious ribs will give your digestive system a one-of-a-kind workout.
There’s an old episode of “Friends” where Joey eats an entire Thanksgiving turkey in a single sitting.
“Whoof,” Joey groans as he pushes the bare bird carcass away from his bloated person. “Here come the meat sweats.”
Perhaps you know what Joey is talking about. Perhaps you’ve eaten one too many burgers at a summer barbecue, or taken one too many servings of ham at the holiday table, and then suddenly needed to change into drier clothes. Or perhaps you’ve just watched the annual Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Championship on TV and marveled at the profuse amounts of perspiration steaming off the contestants’ faces as they shoved dog after dog into their herculean mouths.
As silly as they sound, “meat sweats” — the phenomenon of intense sweating that can follow an excessively meaty meal — sure seem real to those who’ve experienced them. But is there any science to back them up? Are meat sweats a real biological condition — and, if so, what makes meat so messy?
While you won’t find “meat sweats” mentioned in any medical dictionaries, you can find plenty of literature on the digestive mechanisms that make them possible. According to Keya Mukherjee, a biochemistry graduate student at Texas A&M University who specializes in carbohydrate metabolism, it all has to do with how your body breaks down protein.
Protein Digestion
“Proteins are extremely complex molecules and require a lot more energy than fats or carbohydrates to metabolize,” or break down, Mukherjee told Live Science. “If you’re eating a lot of protein in your diet and you’re not eating much of anything else, your body will be producing a lot of energy and a lot of heat. Of course, this could result in sweating.”…
So, where does meat come in? Here’s the rub: Different food types require different amounts of energy to break down — and protein, which meats are chock-full of, requires the most.
