Description
Unpopped popcorn sold in a cheap frying pan complete with handle. The pan had a tight aluminium foil cover that expanded into a dome as you heated the pan on the stove and the corn popped. Made obsolete by microwave oven popcorn products. Jiffy-Pop was usually dry, tasteless corn and you always burned some of the kernels. Great TV commercials though with wide-eyed kids gathered 'round the stove watching the dome expand with all that perfectly popped popcorn.

Jiffy Pop is still around--I've bought it for my kids a time or two. It is in it's own little aluminum pan with a handle that you have to constantly shake around on the stove eye. The popcorn wasn't that great, but it was fun to make. The aluminum foil that held it expanded with the popping, making a dome-like shape.
