Soda vs Cola vs Pop

So most of us drink Pepsi or Coke or some other smiliar brand of soft drink. The question is what do you refer to it as. This seems to vary from region to region. Do you call it Soda, Cola, or Pop?

For me it is soda.

I call it soda or cola and laugh when I hear pop, like a real normal person not some pseudo Cali normal.

Nice to know you have one thing in common with normal people, D.

In this part of the Midwest....we call it pop.

Here we call almost everything a Coke. Then you ask what kind

Normally the conversation goes something like this:

Them: What would you like to drink?
Me: Coke
Them: Pepsi okay?
Me: Whatever.

According to the posted map I'm suppose to be in the "soda" calling area. But nope - everything is 'coke" unless it's Sprite. Sprite is Sprite the rest are coke.

This is pretty much the conversation at every drive thru I go to....it's all coke and then you get specific on if its dr. pepper or pepsi, sprite, or mt. dew.

Glad to see that I'm not the only one like that.
I was worried when I didn't see Coke as an option.

Like a good Yankee Southerner from Chi-cah-go, I call it a Coke. (And I prefer it be one too!)

When they say "Pepsi okay" I lie and say "Same difference!"

Coke if I want a "cola".. But I usually say "Dr. Pepper" not a cola, soda, or pop, repeat with me "Dr. Pepper"
