It's pop here in Detroit. When I lived in Orlando it was soda and every time I came up to visit, my family would give me a hard time when I called it that. A past coworker from Texas used to call it coke which really got confusing.

It's soda. I have spent some time in the Atlanta area and people used to look at Me funny as hell when I would say that in a restaurant.

Say Coke like most southerners when referring to going out and having a soft drink regardless if that's what I order or buy when I get there. If asking someone to pick it up at the store I specify what to get if its not a Coke. I'd never ask someone to pick up some soda pop, I'd be afraid they'd bring home some of that Fanta shit.

Canadian here, we order it by brand & flavor. I'll call it pop sometimes, can't explain why. But then, I'm the odd duck in the family. [:)]

When I lived in NYC, it was "soda" In California, it was the same. In Georgia and Abalama, it was either "Pop" or "Coke", depending (it seemed) upon the age of the speaker.

Growing up in Wales it was pop, with tap water jokingly referred to as "council" pop (free) Living in Scotland I mostly hear juice or ginger as the generic term as in "Can you get me a bottle of juice at the shops"? "Sure, what kind"? Of course In Scotland the usual answer is IRN BRU.

tiggerspoohbear -> RE: Soda or Pop? (3/21/2014 7:13:43 AM)
I've had IRN BRU it's available in some of the larger cities in Canada, singles of course.

Me thinks Marc has to be farther west in NY because here in the Capital District is SODA. [:)]

In the UK we order a 'soft drink' which can be anything from soda, coke, lemonade, fruit juice or other mixer such as ginger ale, with coke and lemonade being the most ordered.

quote: Me thinks Marc has to be farther west in NY because here in the Capital District is SODA. Yup. I'm about as west in New York as you can get. I'm about a twenty minute drive from Niagara Falls (well, thirty minutes until they patch all the potholes).

When I grew up in Detroit, it was "pop." When I lived in Los Angeles, it was "soda." Now that I live in Texas, I still say "soda," though I have worked with people who use the term "coke" for any soft drink.
