Izzy's Ice Cream is out of business because it closed the retail locations. It was an ice cream shop with retail that people liked because of the connection to the shops. IMHO, closing the shops broke the connection and that was that.

Izzy's Ice Cream closes, unable to recover from pandemic changes

After closing its retail locations at the start of the pandemic, the Twin Cities ice cream business wasn't able to rebound.

Restaurants telling me they’re seeing lots of reservations cancel for the coming week: most don’t give a reason, you just cancel online, but it’s like a combo of some people quarantining, others reacting to the vaccine mandate. If you’re inclined to go out - may be a good time.
