WellDressed Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 I drink much more soda than I do beer. Though coffee tops the list. Vanilla Coke. I haven't seen it in almost six months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dean Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 I drink much more soda than I do beer. Though coffee tops the list. Vanilla Coke. I haven't seen it in almost six months. Vanilla Coke is now Coca Cola Vanilla. I drink very little pop. Occasionally I will have a diet ginger ale (or Vernors), or something. Maybe once every month or so. I drink a lot of unsweetened ice tea (or diet ice tea) and water. And booze. I drink booze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 As you already ordered Cokes, there should have been no further inquiry into the issue. The waitress should bring you what you ordered...Cokes. And he should drink it w/o complaint since she was sweet enough to call him darlin. Unless his wife is with him. Then he should send it back to teh kitchen for being too cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I drink a lot of unsweetened ice tea (or diet ice tea) and water. And booze. I drink booze. Vanilla Coke went away for about a year or so in the middle of the decade. Thought it was gone for good, but they changed the word order and added it back to the repertoire. It's still hard to find in some places. On road trips to WNY the past couple of years (when I have to have caffeine for the drive), you look in a lot of quick-stop places and they don't have it. In fact, I haven't seen it in 2-liter or 20oz plastic bottles... only in supermarket 12 - 12oz. can packs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Outstanding! I ain't held on to my high school sweetheart for 20+ years cuz I'm a dipshit. I've held on to her despite it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Vader Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 All that link proves is one thing, people in the eastern half of the US are the ones that care about this the most. Pepsi Twist, that's the one with lemon? I thought it's still available, at least around here. Yes it's the one with lemon. They do not carry it out here anymore. I thought it was discontinued. If they still have it out there, could you send me a case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Vader Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Have been cutting back a lot, as my dentist (my cousin) threatened to kick my ass, but my favorite is Vanilla Coke. Do you like Vanilla Coke from the store or from a diner where they make it for you. I personally love it when they make it for you, very refreshing.

Mark Vader Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Try Virgil's root beer - best stuff out there! I have never tried Virgil's. I'll have to some day. Personally I think Henry Weinhard's is the best root beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lt. Dan's Revenge Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Although I don't drink a lot of it, I would say that Dr. Pepper is my favorite pop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebug Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Where I am from, we say pop. Only time I hear soda, is on mondays when people say to me "soda Bills lost again eh". Coke for me and Canada Dry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cynical Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 As you already ordered Cokes, there should have been no further inquiry into the issue. The waitress should bring you what you ordered...Cokes. You need to get out of the St. Augustine area, and travel in the deep south a little more. As the map shows (the one being linked more than once in this thread), the debate is not about pop vs soda, it should be pop vs soda vs coke. Besides, when somebody asks for a Kleenex, would really expect somebody to say "Sorry, all I have are Puffs"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el Tigre Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 I've never heard anybody call it pop out here in California. Soda and coke,even when it's not a Coke,but never pop. I like Coke with Lime and regular Coca Cola the best. Anybody ever try Coke Black? It was Coca Cola mixed with a shot of espresso. Was actually pretty good,but haven't seen it in a while.

Thanks Sarge, and welcome back, hope all's been well. I was referring to that canned picture of vanilla coke you have there on display. But it's gone. They took it back, won't sell it anymore.

Besides, when somebody asks for a Kleenex, would really expect somebody to say "Sorry, all I have are Puffs"? I'm not disputing that some call all soda pop "coke". I KNOW they do in the south. I am simply commenting on how stupid that is. I also call tissues, "tissues". If someone asks for a Kleenex and I have a different brand, I ask it that is acceptable. When I bartended I used Seagram's 7 and, if available, Seven Up if they ordered a "7 and 7". I'm just that kind of guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chef Jim Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 I drink sparking water, stopped drinking soda (correct) pop (incorrect) a few years ago. Yesterday I was at the airport and got a diet coke. Couldn't finish it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally love it when they make it for you, very refreshing. I've never had fresh-made like that. My father once said it tastes pretty similar, as he remembered. Although I don't drink a lot of it, I would say that Dr. Pepper is my favorite pop. You mean, "Dr Pepper." No period in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
