We often exuse our failures by saying we've learned; validated learning is knowing where to draw the line between fooling yourself and actually learning from your failures.
How could something as simple as testing the product have slipped our mind. We were so wrapped up in flavors and the one pager that it never occurred to test the final product we had decided to create. So, no, I don't believe we failed this in the right way; we could have avoided this mishap, which is also the reason why we learned from it. Smoothies are hard! They have to be perfectly measured, tested and displayed. Even if our product failed, it doesn't mean we as a team did. All in all, our presentation was awesome in my opinion and as a team we worked really well together to have a fun experience and make some smoothies!
