I missed the old one so I voted here... Soda is SC. I occasionally call it pop if I am around my yankee family in ohio, but they refer to everything as beer but wait that is everything there.

Dangit people. It's all coke. No matter whether it's actually Pepsi, Coke, Sprite or anything else. It's all called Coke. BTW I'm from Atlanta, Georgia. Can you figure out why I call it coke. plus pop just sounds dimwitted.

 

[Regine]

Pop - here in Iowa.

In Germany if we want a Coke we actually say "Cola" or "Coca-Cola".

In Missouri it's soda.
BTW, where does the pronunciation "sunduh" come from when refering to an ice cream sunday--I've heard it several times...?

 

[Pastore]

IT IS COKE!!! POP is a family member or a noise. Soda is what you bake or clean with. DAMN Yankees!

[Wingznut]

Pop.

I'm living in Portland, OR.. But grew up in Detroit, MI.

 

[Muerto]

I'm from Victoria BC, Canada. I call it by it's name when I'm talking about a specific drink. When I'm talking in general I say pop.

I find that most of the time Canadians use "pop" and Americans use "Soda".

 

[Yo Ma Ma]

"Pop" - Detroit metro area, MI

 

[jonnyGURU]

In general? Soda.

Coke is good for cleaning batteries. Pepsi doesn't do the trick. Not enough ACID.

A pop is a sucker and tonic is carbonated water.

 

[Total Refected Power]

At a restaurant, I'll ask for a Coke meaning I want the specific brand Coke, not Pepsi or some other dreadful cola.

Soda and I live in Portland, OR
