There's like a Mason-Dixson line across the country separating Pop and Coke. Weird. I didn't realize Pop was that popular. I'm from sodaland myself, but I always say Coke, but that's because I want a Coke. ;)

you know you have taken too many stats classes when your first responce to that map is 'i wonder how they conducted their survey.'

Yay, I was linked! I feel special.

But it's hilarious, huh? I definitely grew up in a pop friendly county.

I always called it pop when I was a kid, then I moved to Los Angeles for a year and got used to calling it soda, then I moved back to Ohio and everybody looked at me weird when I called it soda, so now I just drink coffee most of the time to avoid the whole confusing issue.

Hee. That's funny. It's especially interesting to me that the whole eastern Missouri, southern Illinois area is like an island of "soda." And yep, that's what I call it. The first time I heard someone say "pop" I was so confused. And my first reaction to "coke" is "but I like Pepsi better."

I'd like to know what the "other" answers were...

I almost got askeered off of your form! It's like, way long. And verra blue.


Anyway, My county is split, 50/50 for coke/soda.


No pop here. Pop is what a bubble does. And as everyone knows, ther eare NO BUBBLES in soda.


Ahem. Soda.

75/83 said soda in my home county.
112/119 said soda in my school county.

Definitely soda for me.

People have too much free time!!

How much do I love that the closest county to me (Niagara) is over 93% pop! Go pop!

But I'm interested in what's in the "others" section. If there are other people that are weirdos like my family and make up names for drinks.

That was very interesting. I always find regional stuff like that fascinating. My county was overwhelming "pop." No surprise there, but I was surprised that "pop" was the overall most common name. I'm also shocked my the level of "coke" in the south. I always thought it was more isolated. Weird...
