The Dean Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 We can't beat it by hiding from it. Of course I'm drinking Vanilla Coke as I type so mebbe I'll jes hush up now... No S#it. In some places in the south, they call all soda pop "coke". How, exactly, does that work? Can that EVER be an effective of ordering, say, a root beer? BTW, I am drinking a most excellent bourbon, Van Winkle Special Reserve, 12-Year Old, Lot B, that a client gave me the other day. I have to say, it does not suck. http://www.bourbonenthusiast.com/forum/DBv...displaybottling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim in Anchorage Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 I know a lot of people who say soda pop. They're all under 10 years old. Is that why they always proof me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Blizzard Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 There's a beer thread going on But what about non-alcoholic carbonated beverages? Whether you call it pop (correct) or soda (incorrect), what's your favorite? I'm kind of partial to IBC Root Beer and Black Cherry I'm not much of a soda guy, but when I have a POP, I like I.B.C. or Coke on ice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cynical Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 No S#it. In some places in the south, they call all soda pop "coke". Actually, the word "coke" is used quite heavily through out the south. How, exactly, does that work? Can that EVER be an effective of ordering, say, a root beer? Yep.

Mark Vader Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 I love Pepsi and all Pepsi products. I miss Pepsi Twist, I even liked Pepsi Blue, but Mountain Dew Voltage makes up for it. My favorite Root Beer is Henry Weinhard's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huuuge Bills Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 My favorite flavors of pop would have to be 1. Coke (by far my favorite) 2. Dr. Pepper 3. Canada Dry Ginger ale. (Can't stand most other brands for some reason.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan89 Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Its always been soda to me. I have recently been cutting out soda from my diet all together (Been replacing it with Water and V-8 splash light) due to wanting to cut down on sugar intake. I am just very froward thinking and feel like if I don't change my unhealthy habits now I might never. BUT when I do indulge I love Coke (Vanilla coke in the summer), men drink Coke Pepsi is for girls and children. Pepsi is way too syrupy and sweet Coke has a rich taste. I also like Dr.Pepper while Mt,Dew (only if its cold), Sprite, 7up, and Vanilla Pepsi are all OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanker Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Plastic Pop - Diet Caffeine-free Coke. No calories, no caffeine, very little taste. In fact it tastes the same cold or room temp. It fizzes a lot more than real Coke does though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Jack Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Whatever weenie boy. http://www.popvssoda.com/CONCLUSION People who say "Pop" are much, much cooler. All that link proves is one thing, people in the eastern half of the US are the ones that care about this the most. I love Pepsi and all Pepsi products.I miss Pepsi Twist, I even liked Pepsi Blue, but Mountain Dew Voltage makes up for it. My favorite Root Beer is Henry Weinhard's. Pepsi Twist, that's the one with lemon? I thought it's still available, at least around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corp000085 Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 First of all, its pop. In this order... all from a can. I'm partial to canned ginger ale rather than fountain ginger ale 1) Canada Dry Ginger Ale 2) Schwepps Ginger Ale As far as cola, "No Coke, Pepsi!" I like pepsi out of a fountain rather than canned though. go figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsPride12 Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 I used to drink an insane amount of POP when I was a kid, I was always partial to Mountain Dew but Coca Cola and Squirt were always good to. Used to drink orange pop when I was a kid but that stuff is disgusting to me now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledInIllinois Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Cherry Crush. For some reason I can only find it in UpState New York and most recently in FLA. All the have here is Strawberry Crush ("red pop") and that tastes like the yucky medicine you took as a child! Anyway... On the Crush brand and the unique local flavors... In Canada I noticed they sell Cream Soda Crush... I wonder how that is?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used to drink orange pop when I was a kid but that stuff is disgusting to me now. IMO, Canfield's (RC-Dr.Pepper brand I think) 50/50 is better than Squirt! Don't get me started on pop... I gotta root beer belly to prove it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Give a hamburger, ff, and a coke!" Anyway, my sister worked with someone from down south and my sister told her that she was going to get something to drink and if she wanted something. The lady said: "Yes, I would like a Coke." Anyway, my sister came back with a Coke. The lady then said: "I wanted orange!" Not sure if this was posted: Pop v. Soda Enjoy... Breaks it down to the county I think! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dean Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Actually, the word "coke" is used quite heavily through out the south. Yep. Waitress: Hey darlins', whacha drinkin'? Me: Cokes As you already ordered Cokes, there should have been no further inquiry into the issue. The waitress should bring you what you ordered...Cokes.
