I don't know if there is a secret or a formula to finding "the next big thing," but I think those four elements, or a combination of a few, are probably a good bet.
As is being discussed in another thread the 47 Bond Bread Jackie Robinson fits all those criteria. If anyone has one for sale let me know! :-)
