There's some site out there that has all kinds of those questions and shows who says what. Lots of terms that vary from place to place. Was very interesting to read.
 
Pop? Why "pop?"

SODA doesn't make a popping sound at any time.

And Pepsi should be marketing itself more in the south; can't ask for a Coke when there's Pepsi around, if that's your thing.


I grew up in east Pennsylvania, where "soda" was the dominant term. I now live on the west side, where "pop" is the popular term. I don't drink it much anymore, so I rarely need to use either term anyway.

If by settled you mean this is evidence that we will never be able to agree on a uniform way of calling soda SODA... then yes, it's settled.
