My Aunt is from Michigan and she called it "pop" which i found extremely annoying because ive never heard this from anyone else. I on the other hand call it soda or if it is coke then coke haha thats the most common used term that ive heard.

I am from a place where we call everything coke. Now I live in a place where they call it pop but I can not bring myself to say it. Sometimes I say soda though. But usually I say coke because that is what I want- coke, not pepsi. I will not drink pepsi products... I guess I am a coke snob... but I am ok with that :)

So yeah I'm a pop person. I never say Coke either unless I'm actually asking for a coca-cola. |
My first 26 years I lived where it was called pop. I now live in North Carolina and it is called soda here. It annoys the shit out of me, but I have adapted alright. The wife has not. She gets made fun of.

Soda Pop or Pop. To me, "soda" meant icky club soda.
|
"Coke", and all my southern friends call it "coke". The transplants call it "pop" or "soda".
Years ago you ordered coke and they brought a Coke or Pepsi depending on what was served, now if you order a "coke" and they only serve Pepsi that have to say "We serve Pepsi, is that alright?" Both Coke and Pepsi pushed for that as not to mix up the consumer. |
Pop, but apparently my nearest American neighbours use soda 80-100% of the time. Strange.

I like that...I may try that out just to see the reaction.... "Um I've never heard of house cola" |
I thought it interesting that previous my county (Rice county) in SE Minnesota was a definite shade lighter of blue than anything else near it.
This, like everything, is probably realted to me. |

over here, we call it cooldrink.
|
Soda...Pop... and Coke. But then I grew up all over the US and I'm all mixed up.

Where I lived for the first 25 years of my life... Dark Blue - Always called it Pop, and still do.
Now I moved to ARizona and I get strange looks when I call it Pop. |
