I used to say Pop or soda since I am from up North, but since I've been in TN I have grown accustomed to saying drink. LOL when I went to Chicago last month, I asked for a something and a drink. The guy was like ma'am we don't serve drinks here. LOL.. I was so outdone.

:D shani>>My husband is from Texas and his whole family calls soda "sodawater"! I have never heard anybody call it sodawater until I came to Texas. I'm from the North, so I call it just "soda".

dzsaigirl 04-14-2002 12:54 PM

Sorry, stepping into your forum here :)

I am from TX and we call everything Coke. People will say "What kinda Coke do you want?" Then you say "Dr Pepper" or "Sprite" or whatever it is you want. :) And if there is any kind of can lying around (other than beer) it is generally called a coke can.

Oh, and we sometimes say "soft drink".

UNIQUE97 04-14-2002 02:02 PM

In Louisiana - It's not soda or pop. It's "cold drank" or "Coke".... Orange coke, grape coke, etc...........


In my orignal state Wisconsin-- It's pop for the most part.




EEEEEEEE-YIP!!!!!

Zetaphied 04-16-2002 08:15 PM

In Boston I've always heard the term pop used but having lived in New York first I was already used to the term soda.
