Heres a candy not available 25 years ago: Justins peanut butter cups. It’s a Reese’s with better quality peanut butter, better texture, and better quality chocolate.
But yes it isn’t “innovative” it’s just an improved version of the same thing. And presumably 25 years ago there were gourmet peanut butter cups somewhere, even if you had to go in person to a shop that made them by hand.
And technically there are many more flavors of m&m and Skittles than previously. Though all the “new” flavors were probably inspired by things that existed 25 years ago.
I wonder what innovation is still possible in this space. Honestly probably a lot, AI Driven robotic systems could custom make items for a particular person (from a library of 3d printer or pick and place compatible base components), taking into account information from A:B testing and that person’s taste and previous meals and nutrient goals.
