With 96 possible variations, based on 12 flavors, 3 mix-ins (candy, cookies, etc.) and two varieties (premium and light), it will take a while to get bored. Variations include pistachio chip and mocha cookie. The company says the 100-percent all natural dairy ingredients are shelf stable until mixed and flash frozen right inside the machine. Will this strange and mysterious process yield a deliciously creamy frozen treat or one that's slightly off?
The first machine is located at Northeastern University, but 100 are scheduled to be installed throughout New England in the near future. We'd love to hear from anyone who's tried the stuff. Spill it in the comments!

It was fun then, with several different flavors and mix-ins, and you can watch the machine create the ice cream for you (at least, you could back then!). It was pricey though, at something like $3.75 for a small Hoodsie-cup-sized ice cream.
