I'm from Iowa, and we call it pop. I had an experience similar to yours when we moved to southern Tennessee. People didn't call it either pop or soda there. When I asked a native Tennesseean what she called it, she had to think a minute before she said, "Coke, I guess." Of course, everyone there drinks Coke.

I know it's funny, I came here in nc and they call it soda, when people offer you drinks here they would ask what would you like to drink water or soda nad then I have to ask them back what kind of soda you've got? I'm getting used to the soda thing anyhow.

I moved from Oklahoma to East Texas. I said something about "pop" and then I was told that was bad language around there.

I call it soda and I live in Pennslyvania where everyone calls it pop. Also the say hoagies and here is one that I think is strictly Pittsburgh speak "yunz" it mean "you all" or "everyone" . Actually I could go on and on about the way these people talk. They even have a T shirt defining all the Pittsburgh words.
