Soda here.

I think I spelled that right.

it is soda here. When I was in the south the store clerk asked me if "I would like my pop in a sack" I said, 'that would hurt wouldn't it?"

When i was in the midwest it was pop, in puerto rico they just say Coke for everything, unless thats just all they drink

It's POP!

yea but 99% of people here call it coke so we got lumped in with the 'south' in this thread lol.

Softdrink or Coke refers to carbonated beverages in general here in the South.

As for the inbred comment, the highest incidence of incest in the US happens in the North West. I guess you get your information the same place most people do, fictional movies.

I live in Texas,
and here, these inbred
ass fucks call everything "cokes"

as in, "what kinda cokes ya got?"
"we got sprite, mountain dew, and pepsi."

smh

Pop.. soda sounds cheesy

When I lived in New York it was always soda.

Once I moved to Ohio everyone called it pop. I thought that shit was retarded and had no idea what anyone was talking about at first...

But now I say pop... :disgust

it's pop here or a.k.a. "Teeth Rottener" haha

it's called carbonated sugar water round here.

I live in Czech Republic. It all gets called lemonade

Where I was raised it is soda. My parents were actually introduced to each other because when they went to college in Western Pennsylvania after having been raised in Eastern Pennsylvania they were the only two people a common friend knew that said 'soda' instead of 'pop'.

Since moving to the UK I have to giggle because they tend to be called 'fizzy drinks' which is just overly cute.

Pop is what I call my grandfather
Soda is 'soda water'
Soft Drink is what we call it here.
Coke is a brand of soft drink.

Xerox is a brand of electronic equipment. Photocopier is a machine that photocopies.

Hoover is a brand of electronic equipment. Vacuum cleaner is a machine that cleans carpets.

soda is too oldskool, mostly coke or lemonade

here in austria that stuff was called "Kracherl" in earlier days

Neither. It's "coke" here. When someone asks for a coke, you have to say, "Coke coke?" TO signify that they wanted a real coke and not a pepsi coke or 7-up coke.

You dont feel stupid asking for a coke coke or a pepsi coke?

Do you call any other products by a brand name instead of the general name for them?

I have given up 'arguing' with my mother in law that my vacuum is a Dyson vacuum and not a Dyson Hoover.

yep the English call it fizzy drinks or soft drinks ocasionally
sounds funny saying soda or pop but I guess the Americans think it sounds funny when we call it fizzy drinks

Soda on my part of the planet.

Unreal. My first urge is to ask if you're kidding, but sadly I doubt you are. :1orglaugh

I actually hate both words "pop", "soda"... I cringe everytime I hear them. I just call them whatever the fuck they are "Coke", "Dr Pepper", "Tango"... What is so hard about that?

They both sound EXTREMLY cheesey and gay, am I the only one who see's this? (or hears this)

None... It's called "refrigerante" here in Brazil...:)

trenslated it is 'fresh drink'. But when i order somthing i always call it by name. Cola, 7up. Nobody uses the term 'fresh drink' because that can be anything

its all coke here. "I'll have Coke Dr. Pepper please"

Soda here

Yup! We never use 'pop' or 'soda' here...

i agree. it's mostly soda here but i always use the brand names.

well kids, we all learnt something today!

in Canada it's called Pop.

in Quebec it's called Pepsi!

Do you brush your teeth with colgate crest or just crest?

What type of nike's do you wear, adidas nike's or reebok nike's?

What kind of viewsonic do you have, i use a samsung viewsoic.

We call it pop here in Michigan and always make fun of one of our friends from Wisconsin that calls it soda, ha ha.

I don't understand how people refer to pop as "Coke", that's a specific brand, isn't that confusing going to a restaraunt and say you want some Coke, do they ask you "what kind of Coke would you like ?"

Well to be honest about most in the south ask for what they want, you want a coke ask for a coke, you want a 7 up ask for a 7 up. This soda and pop stuff is non-sense


how is that different then asking for a soda and then being asked what kind of soda do you want?

You refer to them in general as soda's. For instance i tell my wife to pick up some sodas from the store, she knows i like dr pepper and mountian dew so she will get those or i just tell her to buy dr pepper or mountian dew. Now if i just said can you pick up some cokes, guess what she would bring home.

When im in a resturant and they ask what would you like to drink i usually say what kind of sodas do you have or what kind of soft drinks do you have. They usually reply with a list of differnent soda names or they just say coke products or pepsi products.

If you go to a resturant here and say you want a coke dr pepper they will either bring them both or maybe mix them up in a single drink. But i bet they will just say huh did you want a coke or a dr pepper?

Well, what's your terminology for all brands in general. Like say you walked into a restaraunt and wanted to know what brand of refreshments they have, do you say "What kind of pop do you have ??".

When I go into a restaraunt, I don't say "Give me a pop", then say what kind I want. abshard hit it in the head above when he said it's a "general" term.

Where I live it's all in the category of "soda". So if you were here and asked for "a coke" you will get a standard Coca Cola. They might ask "is Pepsi ok?" if they are a pepsico supplied restaurant. If you wanted an orange flavored carbonated beverage, you'd ask for an "orange soda".

That's just it, most sane people don't ask a waitress for "a soda", they order the specific brand they want. "I'll have a 7-up please" etc.

Most people I know only refer to it as "pop" when talking about it in general, or asking a kid if they want some pop, or "I have to pick up some pop at the store", etc.

i missed mountain dew... i lived in chicago for 6 months when i was younger... i remember drinking 2 or 3 a day :P

they call it just 'coke' here too...

Growing up in Washington it was pop, when I moved to Texas it was soda or coke so I chose soda after I got sick of people making fun of me for saying pop. Now that I am back in Washington I still say soda.

I think I addressed this in my first statement, be specific and ask for what you want, and after thinking about it the last time I heard "soda or pop" was when I was child many years ago visiting one of my grandparents, honestly do people still use those terms?

I've never heard anyone under the age of 50 ever use the term POP or SODA..

Everyone calls the POP or SODA by it's brand name...

"I gotta get me a Coke!, These pretzels are making me thirsty!"
