I generally call it Pepsi, but generically I call it pop.

Soda would either be cream soda, soda water, lime soda, or anything else that's got soda in its name or isn't a brand.

Oh and Sprite tastes sweeter than 7-up; again, my opinion.


Hmm. I think 7-up tastes more like a watered down and more lime-y Sprite.

7-Up is like crappy Sprite.

Less fruity, less sweet, more watery.

I call it pop. Sure if I know what it is specifically I'll say that (like pepsi) but in general it's pop. Pop cans, pop machines, so on...

I call everything by it's name except for Root Beer, because... well, I think they all taste the same. I call Pepsi, Pepsi, and Coke, Coke. Mix them up in my presence and feel the wrath of my Giant Mallet of Doom! *cough* I don't care for Coke. Anyway, to pertain to the original poll, if I don't call a soda by it's product name, then I call it soda (like I just used).

I call it soda, and always have. Unless I called it something else when we lived in NY, but I don't remember. My memory of living there is just a big blank.

45% General American English
40% Yankee
10% Dixie

The Dixie must come from living in Florida, while the Yankee probably comes from me living up in PA.

Another Interesting Fact: Coca Cola actually used to be a medicine. It progressed to be sold in shops as a sweet drink, until a woman ordered some Coca Cola and the waiter accidentally mixed it with carbonated water and then gave it to her anyway. The woman said it was delicious, and thus, Coca Cola was born. Gradually the cocaine came out, though. xP


Accidental carbonation? I don't think so.

And about the cocaine:

By Heath's calculation, the amount of ecgonine [an alkaloid in the coca leaf that could be synthesized to create cocaine] was infinitesimal: no more than one part in 50 million. In an entire year's supply of 25-odd million gallons of Coca-Cola syrup, Heath figured, there might be six-hundredths of an ounce of cocaine.

Another thing we have to keep in mind, is that back then, small amounts of cocaine were used as an ingredient in almost everything. It's not like Coca-Cola stood alone.
