The south is silly. They just call all soda "coke" ???
What if they want a sprite? Confused
 
It's true. Mainly when you go to restaurants, though. Whenever someone says they want a coke, normally that means any sort of dark carbonated liquid.

Does Root Beer and Dr. Pepper not exist down there? Shocked
 
 
Only in taste, not in nameLOL. It's really not quite that drastic though. Only about 40% percent of people don't distinguish what they want when they ask for a "coke".

We just call it 'fizzy juice' here. Although I tend to refer to it as a 'mixer' as it's the only thing I use it for! Thumbs Up

I�d call it Brus too. I guess it�s the same in Danish and Norwegian. I�ve voted other.

That's really dependent on where you live. Even in America there are a ton of different names for it. I know it as soda, and find it silly to call it anything else, but I know people from Chicago and that area who call it pop.

Soft drink is a very general term that usually incorporates drinks such as lemonade, iced tea, and such.

Weird how I rarely hear milk referred to as a soft drink.  I guess that's big boy stuff. LOL

Soda crackers make me think of soda, though.
Lost respect for these archives when I saw Creed added, among other bands. Not going to be foruming here anymore. You can keep my reviews if you want.

yeah I found that odd. Wonder why it is.
And yes, it's called soda because it is soda!
