That does sound a lot like the same idea, Jenn. I still love popcorn popped in oil, better than the microwave popcorn.

This sounds a bit like the Jiffy Pop idea:

Hobo Popcorn
* Popcorn
* Oil
* Heavy duty aluminum foil
* Stick
In the middle of a 18″ x 18″ piece of aluminum foil, place 1 teaspoon of oil and 1 tablespoon of popcorn. Bring foil corners together to make a pouch. Secure the edges of the foil but leave plenty of room for the popcorn to pop. Tie the pouch to a stick and hold the pouch over the hot coals. Shake constantly until all the popcorn has popped. Add butter and salt to taste.

Thanks for the insights on Jiffy Pop, we are using that as “prizes” at our food bloggers camp for funny skits, etc. Will warn our campers that if they try to pop it in the campfire, they probably won’t be happy. But it would make a good blog post if they do!

Helen, do you happen to recall the brand name or store? I’m a big fan of JP over the campire and would love to find the long handle thing you are talking about.

Thanks!
Susan
