Cool Misc Data. I wonder what Govt. Study paid millions for this? LOL.

I'm a coke fan and even now staring at a Stainless Steel Embossed Coke Shaped Mug.. filled with.. yes you guessed it, COKE!

i voted pop, and fit in the map appropriately, but really, and usually, I call it by what it is: Dr. Pepper, Cream Soda, Root Beer, etc. if I want a "pop", i get the kind of "pop" I want, and refer to it that way, so recently I have discovered Green Tea Ginger Ale. so if asked I will say I wand the Green Tea Ginger Ale, or whatever it is that I want at the time.

I say "soda"....from our time in Pennsylvania

I say "soda".

(from our time in Pennsyvania)

closed?
nope, not that I am aware of.

mixture between pop and soda

Pop. Columbia County, Oregon, the northernmost one in blue, one removed from the coast...80% or more say pop.

of course the poll here will reflect a xxCOGxx "local" of the southeast "coke" paradigm.

I say Soda from when we lived in North Dakota.

We usually call it soda in Southeast Missouri.

If you say coke in our area - we take that to mean
Coca-cola.

If you ask for a coke in one of our restaurants -
you will either get a Coca-cola or the waitress
will tell you they only carry Pepsi products.

If you ask for a pop - you might get belted up
side the head!
We'd know you were a foreigner anyway!

I noticed that my county is 80-100% Coke. That is what I voted....that is just what the locals call it.

So, liberals say Soda, hicks say Coke and normal people (like me) say Pop.


Note: many years ago when I lived in Texas, we said, "Sodawater."

Pepsi

That map looks like it a north/south thing.

If someone calls it "pop" or "soda", you automatically know they "ain't from around here." (and that's about as bad a thing as you can have said about you where I come from).
