What is the deal with the whole "Coke" thing in Texas? I have heard that all pop is considered a "Coke". So if you were at a resturant and you wanted a Mt. Dew, would you say "ill have a coke, ill take a Mt. Dew?"

When asked what you'll have with your meal there are two proper responses: Tea or Coke. The tea will be iced and sweet, don't bother asking for any other type. If you request a Coke, you will then be asked what type. At that time you clarify, Coka Cola (Cocola), Mountain Dew, Dr. Pepper, Etc.)

There is no such drink as "pop" in Houston. Pop is a sound. No decent restaurant would serve Mt. Dew. You get that at the 7-11.

You would be correct. All sodas are called Coke in Houston.
