greenhouse shake and bake

While inside the first set of doors in the double door greenhouse entrance of fast food restaurants, one person stands inside with both doors closed and releases flatulence while shaking their body, then immediately enter the second set of doors and closing the door behind them as fast as possible. Immediately, the heat in the greenhouse will move the air and bake the fart, thus, leaving a smelly present for the next customer walking in.
