We call it Soda. If you say pop most people will not know what you are talking about!

I hear (and use) Coke as a generic term a lot. Soda is probably the second.

I dated a girl from the midwest, and when would say "pop" i would make fun of her. I reminds me of the 50's.

Soda. I used to say pop or soda interchangeably, but I've dropped the pop completely since moving here.

Golly gee wiz! Maybe if you find a swell gal you can take her on a date and you can order a pop. That would be far out! And if it goes well, you can ask her to go steady!


I tease, I tease. That is the kind of stuff I used to say to the girlfriend that called it pop- she didnt think it was funny.
