I'm from western PA, so it was always pop to me. I thought soda was just an ingredient in pop or the stuff you put in the back of the fridge to keep from smelling the month-old pizza. Until I moved to Massachusetts where everyone says "soda," and you drink water from a "bubbler"!
And to address the "Coke is a brand" issue...My husband calls all paper towels Bounties. So he spills his milk and says, "Could you grab me a Bounty?" It drives me crazy!
