No matter what product category you work in, there always seems to be a new concept that reminds us that nothing is set in stone. There's always room for new ideas, even in very well established category. Last weekend, I was in Miami. Some friends of mine who know how much I like innovation took me to Chill N - a small ice-cream shop that uses liquid nitrogen.
The place is an interesting mixture of science fair with ice-cream R&D lab. Each batch is made to order, providing a nice sense of theater as nitrogen is pumped into KitchenAid mixers right in front of you. The end result is the freshest ice cream I've ever had, something you would expect to taste straight out of an industrial facility.

Fascinating consumer experience and proof that powerful ideas can shake up any category,
no matter how developed it might be.
