Who cares about toilet paper? Jiffy Pop appears to be out of stock everywhere and maybe discontinued. What are we to do?

It looks wonderful but 6 quarts is big for carrying in the camper and all of you would have to come along to help eat it all.  :)   Might get one for home though. I always make stovetop corn for here at home. Jiffy was only on trips.

It weighs in at 5 ounces... and can be hung outside... believe me you will never go back to leathery microwave... popping fresh and then toppings ... certainly for the house first .... then I know you'll take it with you!

There are ways to make your own Jiffy Pop style popper using pie tins. So combine that with your gourmet popping corn or home made popping corn. Best of both worlds - quality popcorn done over the campfire!

Mr. Ted, could you please illustrate? Summer popcorn season is here.

I'm a longtime Jiffy-pop enthusiast going way back to my backpacking days. Always keep a few tucked away in the FWC in the narrow cubbyholes in the back of our pantry cabinet. Thanks for the warning on supply chain shortages!!! I'll keep my eyes out for possible hoarding maneuvers :cool: .

Sadly, from what I've heard Jiffy Pop is discontinued and no longer made.
