Pop or Soda?!
Pop or Soda?
I call it soda. Everyone I know calls it soda.
Answers:
"Pop" in most of the upper Midwest and into the western part of the Northeast, including such cities as Cleveland, Ohio; Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; Detroit, Michigan; Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minnesota; Erie, Pennsylvania and Buffalo, NY; and stretching as far east as Rochester, New York; west up to and including the Pacific Northwest; and as far south as the northern half of Oklahoma. The majority of the state of Michigan (including the Upper Peninsula), especially the Metro Detroit area specifically call soft drinks "Pop" (Faygo, a brand of soft drink made in Detroit is an example of this). In the lower Midwest, such as southern Illinois, southern Indiana, and the Cincinnati, Ohio area, "soft drink" predominates (which is why the term is used in Kroger stores, which is Cincinnati-based). The state of Colorado also uses the term "pop."
"Soda" in the Northeast, the Southwest (California, Nevada, Arizona, and Texas, Hawaii, and parts of South Florida (near Miami), and parts of the Midwest (around St. Louis and parts of Wisconsin, especially in the East, and around Milwaukee).
"Tonic" is used all over eastern New England although the usage is becoming archaic.
"Soda pop" is used by some speakers especially in the mountain west.
