Is it called a "pop", "soda", "sodapop"?!


Question: Is it called a "pop", "soda", "sodapop"!?
I mainly drink Diet Mtn Dew so the typical "cola" or "coke" don't make sense!. I've heard all of these terms used throughout the US and can't figure out if it is determined by region!. What do you think!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

My old babysitter called it pop and she came from Oregon!. In California we call it soda!. So I think it is a regional thing!. It really doesn't matter what you call it, as long as you get something to drink!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Im from pittsburgh and in the steel city its always called pop!. Now on the other side of the state (ie!. philly) its called soda!. I now live in the south where its called coke (not just for the brand, but the beverage in general!. you order a coke and then you specify what kind)!. So its def!. a region thing!Www@FoodAQ@Com

It is determined by region!. I was born and raised in Ohio and we called it pop!. I live in Florida and they call it soda!. I think both soda and pop are a short version of the original word, soda pop!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I agree that saying "coke" is weird unless it is literally that brand and flavor!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
