It looked real neat!

Iffen you reemember that, you are

Woo hoo!
Haha...Then I am OLD....I could NEVER make Jiffy Pop without burning it...You had to keep shaking it the whole time, and I guess I just could never get it right...THAT was the most innovative, convenient, and fastest way to make popcorn (and really the ONLY other way before the hot air poppers, remember those?), until the microwave came along...
