Best done at the dinner table in front of your guests - but it is necessary to issue them with protective equipment.

At work they run courses on liquid nitrogen safety. Naturally no one was keen to attend yet another safety course and so numbers were pretty low. The bloke running the course then included making liquid nitrogen icecream and attendance has been much higher ever since. I'll ask him for the recipe - just in case.
