/ck/ - Food & Cooking

In the western suburbs of Chicago, people just call them "drinks" now

For example "do you want a drink with that" typically implies some sort of carbonated beverage, where as if someone wanted water they'd say water specifically

This doesn't apply at all in Chicago however

I'm sorry, but they're called "cokes", anon.

You're a manchild, juggelo.

We call them one of the below in Australia (never soda or pop):

Soft drink
Cool drink
Fizzy drink (mostly young kids)

If someone here asked me if I wanted a soda or pop I would punch them

>If someone here asked me if I wanted a soda or pop I would punch them

> I would like a glass of soda and a cherry pop.

Rochester NY checkin in. Yea guys, it's called pop

By here, I meant wait staff in a restaurant or a fast food cashier.

Not here as in /ck/

Fellow Aussie here. I can confirm "soft drink" (pretty much the default) and "fizzy drink" (kid's term) but I can't say that I've ever heard "cool drink". Maybe it's a regional thing and I'm in Vic.
I've heard "cold drink" but that usually refers to beer.

If someone asked me for a "pop" I'd assume they meant some sort of drug.
Don't do drugs.

Cool drink is a WA term I think, I've never seen it used elsewhere, so it must be regional.

It's my dream to ride my bike from Melbourne to Perth and feel the Fremantle doctor on my face. It'll happen one day. And I'll ask for a "cool drink" .

>>6599095
It's called a carbo (from carbonated drink).
Now bug off.

>>6599212
Nothing beats a cool drink with the cool Freo doctor blowing in your face

G'luck

>>6599095

Its soft or fizzy drink. Kill yourself.

It's soda you subhuman

Let's settle this:

All of it is soda. "Soda" is slang for "sodium bicarbonate", the chemical used for carbonating water.

"Drinks" is extremely vague in the US unless you say "soft drinks", which makes you sound like a restaurant manager or a foreigner.

You don't call non-cola soda as "cokes". Saying "You want a coke?" and offering someone a fruit-flavored soda, ginger ale, or a root beer makes you look silly.

If you say "pop" you sound like a grandpop, end of story. "Soda pop" is okay because at least you're half-right by using "soda".

If you want a Coke you ask for a Coke.
If you want a Pepsi you ask for a Pepsi.
If you want a Fanta you ask for a Fanta.

...follow the pattern...

Collectively they are 'carbonated beverages'.

As a Brit, I usually hate the Americanisation of my language and culture, but honestly, I wish it would become acceptable for us to say soda or pop here. In my area of England, they are exclusively called fizzy drinks.

How many seconds of my life have I needlessly wasted pronouncing those extra clumsy syllables?

There's no fucking justice.

Southernfag here.

Everyone calls every soda a "coke."
Pisses me off.

Soft drink

cola is the only proper answer for all regions

where i live we call them "fizzies" because of the sound it makes when you crack one open
as in Q: "what kinda fizzy do you want?"
A: "just fizzy my shit up"

>"Soda pop" is okay because at least you're half-right by using "soda".
saying "soda pop" makes you sound like you just walked out of an archie bunker episode

>>6599276
I can deal with soda pop, even if it is annoyingly redundant.

But god help anyone who says "sodey pop". I don't care if they are a child, I'll throw them out a window.

>>6599100
