I’m a southeastern Michigan outlier. I say Pepsi because that’s what I generally drink but I do throw the occasional “soda” in for good measure.
Just goes to show: The proper term is “NeHi.”
I’m from VA. We called soft drinks “drinks”. When my upstate NY boyfriend who was 16 at the time was asked by my mother if he’d like a drink, he thought she was really cool and told her he’d take a bourbon and coke. He got a coke. 8 )
Nice colors, but doesn’t mention “tonic” as a possibility. That’s what the locals call it here in Barney Frank’s congressional district. The aisle signs in the “stowap and showap” are even marked such.
Surprised more people than Texans call EVERY soft drink a coke.
“what do you want to drink?”
“coke”
“what kind?”
“Dr Pepper”
I always say coke. As you can see in the Florida map, the places where they say soda are snowbird counties. Ny’ers and others that screwed up their state them come down here to screw up mine and elect people like Debbie Wasserman Schultz.
