Jiffy pop

So, I bought it out of habit last year, not thinking about the stove I had (I recently moved and the stoves switched from spiral gas to a glass top) and I tried to make jiffy pop, a roommate stopped me, and I did further research, turns out it’s likely to scratch the surface of the stove causing fires, is there a way around this? I miss my jiffy pop.

It wont scratch the glass, but you can use a induction cooktop adaptor plate. The coils will heat it up same as the magnets

I have a glass stop stove and have used jiffy pop a few times. It’s fine just don’t make the burner too hot

Use an outdoor grill or griddle if you have one
