Pretty much everything is Coke. When you go to a restaurant don't be surprised if you are asked "What kind of Coke would you like?"
And I'm from Georgia.
Pop is what you drink.
Soda is what you use when baking.
Michigan.
Amen. MI here as well.

Soda. I'm from CA.
In GA, the people with southern accents call it "coke".
Pop seems to be a Midwestern thing.

the word soda makes me chuckle.
This made me laugh:
CONCLUSION
People who say "Pop" are much, much cooler.Im from WA and I've always called it soda. My mil is weird and the last time I was with her she asked me if I wanted a soda.. And then a few minutes called it pop. She said she didn't know what to call it .. She's always lived in thr pacific northwest.
And i don't know anyone who refers to baking soda as simply soda. My sil bakes a lot.. I think I'll txt her and ask her what kind of soda she uses.. Shell probably need me to clarify hahha.
I call it "sodie" at home when I am being goofy. Not in public though
This... in Texas
Haha! Well I think that would okay!
She would order a "sodie" and as a teenager I was mortified. It takes a lot to embarrass me though now-a-days!
In Michigan where I grew up it was pop. Here in California it is soda. I say soda now only because if you call it pop nobody knows what you are asking for.
We were at the zoo for my birthday last year with DD and my parents. My parents still live in MI and call it pop. We were getting lunch through a buffet type thing and when you paid you picked up the drink cups. My mom asked for a medium pop. The cashier just looked blankly at her and did nothing. It was like he had no idea what she said and could not connect the dots. So instead of asking, he just did nothing. I quickly said we would like a medium soda and he handed over the cup immediatley... True story.
It was "pop" until I got to college and everyone called it "soda". I thought that sounded klassy and it rubbed off on me.
So "soda"
