Lifelong Ohioan here, when someone says "soda" I think of "baking soda", and "coke" is a brand name so "pop" makes the most sense.

Soda's probably made inroads in flyover country, since both NY and LA use it and they're the only cities that matter.

Compared to the 2003 chart, soda is taking over in upstate NY, the area around Austin, Oregon, and Colorado. Basically anywhere in the process of gentrification.

I grew up in Austin longer ago than I care to admit, and it was already pretty rare for me to hear anything other than "soda" used generically. Not unheard of, but rare.

"Soft Drink"

>> No.9760221

From the south.
Coke is mostly singular.
Soda is mostly plural.

I would say soda is more common but coke is used quite often.
If someone asks you what you want to drink you typically tell them exactly what you want. You say you want "a Sprite". You don't say you want "a soda" or "a coke".

>>9759729

Same with Washington. Every time I see one of these graphs, it says we all call it pop. I have lived in this state my entire life and not once have I heard of it referred to as anything other than soda. I'm convinced that there was a group consensus to lie to the census, and I'm not in on the joke.
