is it 'pop' or 'soda' where you live?
 

What about "Cola", "Seltzer", or "Fizzygood"? Ok, I made the last one up.

It was pop when I lived near Pittsburgh growing up, but out west its soda.

I call it sugar water

its a mix here in the midwest, but i call it pop

Pop.

But, I've also lived where it was soda and soda pop.

hahahahahah - in the South it says they refer to all soft drinks as 'Coke' - inbred hillbillies!

Only homos call it soda

I have seen that map before, it's interesting. Growing in around NYC suburbs & northern NJ, we called it "soda" and/or "coke", because we were a Coca-Cola household, not Pepsi fans.

On second thought: Cerveza! :thumbsup

It was "pop" in Colorado when I was a kid. It was "soda" when I lived in NYC and it is "cola" here in Latvia.

still pop here in nothern colorado for the most part

"soda" for sure...

soda in cali
i call it sodapop or "a coke" ...

pop here

I say soda :)

It is pop when I visit my Dad in Michigan, Florida it seems like it is all called coke LOL,

none of the above

flavored carbonated beverage

:)

Around here it's pop, but I still call it soda.

Here in NW Florida, you get real funny looks if you ask for a pop. They think you mean you need a slap upside the head, and they look like they just may give it to you.

It's pop. Seems east coast people I have known always say soda.

But from the responses on here its pretty mixed.

sody pops

In Texas, it's sodas.

I remember a friend from Boston asking for a tonic.

Carbonated beverage.

Ok I would say technically it would of started out as soda, as in soda water. Flavorings came into play a bit latter. Though pharmacies which started all of this for the most part started with soda water or at least seltzer water.

As to picture. Dr Pepper or a pick me up (original design), Coke or Coca cola (original design already brow beaten to death), and Mountain Dew or a moonshine mixer (original design).

we call it 'softdrink'

begin the flaming

jveux un coke tabarnak.

(i will order a coca)

Crap.








Okay pop. Here people call it pop. Or "soft drinks".

lol @ pop. I've never heard anyone call soda "pop" in real life.

Some people even call it "soda pop". Or sody-pop if'n yer in south hickville.

pop here, but whenever i go over the border they have no clue what im talking about, some places everything is pepsi

hey there now....dont you start with me.....everyone thinks that if you are from the south that you have seen a ufo and that you are dating your sister. I will tell you right now that might have been a weather balloon and I am NOT dating my sister......I mean I fucked her and all, I just never took her anywhere......ok, I'm only joking....really....I took her places.

Seriously, though....we have always called it Coke....actually when I was a kid it was "Co-Cola". If someone said "Can I get a pop?" We would usually reply by saying "I'm gonna POP you side the head with this co-cola bottle".


--T

it could go either way here... but mostly 'pop'

I call it soda, when i went to georgia back in the early ninties to visit relitives, we were at a drive thru and i asked for a soda and everyone started laughing at me. they said you mean a coke? I said no i dont like coke. Why would they call every soda a coke?

We folk from Indiana resent the "south" reference, lol.

Indiana is the Midwest

its soda down here.

if Southerners call every soft drink 'Coke' how do you ask somebody for a 7-Up ?


'Sassy Jo gimme one of them cokes in the green bottle that don't say Coca Cola on it - there's a number on the bottle but beats me what it is'

it just sounds so weird to me when people call it "pop"
