Jiffy Pop – Corrugation texture manufacturer – china Tile texture
History
Fred Mennen of LaPorte, Indiana is credited with developing the product in 1958. It was based on a similar product designed five years before by Benjamin Coleman of Berkley, Michigan, and marketed by the Taylor-Reed Corporation as E-Z Pop. Mennen began marketing Jiffy Pop in 1959, and within one year it had reached the national U.S. market.
In the early 1960s, Taylor-Reed sued Mennen Food Products for patent infringement. The district court ruled for the plaintiff, finding Jiffy Pop and E-Z equivalent products, but the case was overturned on appeal.
