As a good friend of mine would say: well, see what happened was...

That's what the owners of the patent for cryogenically probably wanted to say when a court ruling invalidated their patent.

Dippin' Dots lost its patent in 2007, and it has two main rivals (even though I've never heard of wither one): MiniMelts and MolliCoolz.
