Anybody remember those Jiffy Pop pie tins with the expanding foil top and wire handle? Do they still make'em? That's how we usually made popcorn when I was a kid. Dear ol' Mum usually burnt a good deal of it.

I got my sister a popcorn assortment with flavor toppings and salts - tossed one of those Jiffy Popcorn tins for good measureMr Beardsley wrote: ↑Wed Aug 30, 2023 2:07 amThey do and it still burns in the blink of an eyeMikeDennison wrote: ↑Wed Aug 30, 2023 1:39 am Anybody remember those Jiffy Pop pie tins with the expanding foil top and wire handle?

She loved it
Plain. I was so happy when she bought an air popper. I like strong flavors in tobacco, in food, not as much as I get older.Piping Abe wrote: ↑Tue Aug 29, 2023 3:37 pmHow do you eat it? Butter, salt or with some tinned fish?

@Mr Beardsley says the Jiffy Pop is still made, but my Old Folks switched to microwave popcorn years ago. Mum still burns it.Citizen B wrote: ↑Wed Aug 30, 2023 10:00 pmNow, that, I would eat.

Popped in a pot on the stove top in olive oil and just seasoned with salt. Favorite snack while watching indy car replays
