    Can of juice or fizzy juice here.

    A Glaswegian service user at work called it "Juice" & totally threw me :laugh: I'm from North East UK. We call it pop - & Tap water is Council pop!

    Council pop? Is that sort of like....'poor man's pop'? 'Council' isn't used much as a term here in the states as it in the UK but I think I know what you mean.

    In Texas, it's "coke." What kinda coke ya want? Co-Cola, Dr Pepper, Grape Nehi? LOL

    Exactly. Same in Oklahoma. Its all coke.

    Yes, In Texas! Do you want a coke.... Yes! What kind? Dr Pepper please. Yup it's TEXAS. :bigsmile: :laugh: :drinker:

    Obviously, it's pop. It was a rhetorical question.

    When I lived in Western PA we called it "pop". "What kind of pop would you like?". In Eastern PA, though they called it "soda". Where I live now, we have such a mish-mash of folks from everywhere I just call it a "carbonated beverage".

    The first time I heard a soft drink being referred to as a pop or soda was when I was 13 years old and visited West Virginia. My cousin asked me if I wanted a pop and I said, "Do you want me to pop you back?" then she laughed and said, "Do you want a soda?" I replied, "What's a soda?" She then asked me, "Do you want a drink?" I answered, "Sure, I'll take a drink." The cashier at the store said, "Child you are too young for a drink. We don't sell drinks to minors." I told him a drink in NC is a soft drink.
