Pops the hell outa popcorn too, but be careful. If you hold the jiffy pop 
still for more than a very short second, the C-4 will burn a hole through 
the bottom. The resulting mess is usually complicated further by the fact 
that the popping kernals are falling into the burning C-4. I can remember 
that happening once where everybody would up in the bushes trying to avoid 
the little bomblets of flaming C-4 flying about.
