Wha is Soda Pop?!
Answers: Down south, here in Georgia, we call anything carbonated a Coke. "What kind of Coke do you want?" does not specifically mean a Coca-Cola brand drink. We even consider Pepsi to be a flavor of Coke. I know that sounds weird.
it means soft drinks example coke
A soft drink is a beverage, often carbonated, that does not contain alcohol. (Carbonated soft drinks are more commonly known as soda, pop, tonic, or soda pop in parts of the United States and Canada, or fizzy drinks in the U.K.;[1] sometimes called minerals in Ireland) The name "soft drink" specifies a lack of alcohol by way of contrast to the term "hard drink". The term "drink", while nominally neutral, often carries connotations of alcoholic content. Beverages like colas, sparkling water, iced tea, lemonade, squash, and fruit punch are among the most common types of soft drinks, while hot chocolate, hot tea, coffee, milk, tap water, alcohol, and milkshakes do not fall into this classification. Many carbonated soft drinks are optionally available in versions sweetened with sugars or with non-caloric sweeteners.
It's for confused people. East Coasters say soda and Midwesterners say pop.
MidWesterners say "pop".
I bet the name comes from the "pop" when a bottle is opened. Interesting, actually... follow this link:
"Sood_el_hadab_hot" has a good explanation there.
In South Africa we simply call them "cold drinks" but this can also refer to anything that is non carbonated.
Haha, yeah, especially in Atlanta. When you see a Pepsi truck drive through downtown everybody just stops and gives them the evil eye. It's hilarious.
