i believe most of the east coast calls it pop, I had family over there and when they'd visit we'd make fun of them for calling it pop. As a kid we always called all sodas "coke" then youd get asked what kind Pepsi, coca cola, etc. Now i call it soda, or just use the brand name.

May have changed since I was a kid...(it was a long time ago)

But, I called it "pop" being from Michigan. When visiting relatives on the East Coast...New Jersery, Penn., Maryland, Delaware, DC.....people didn't know what I was asking for when saying "large pop"....they laughed and said "oh, soda".


EDIT...since it wwas asked, this may be interesting...

Always called it pop.

Only time I call it soda is when I ask for a cream soda.

Fizzy! Actually I heard that in England and was extremely confused with respect to what the girl at the counter was asking me.

She kept asking, "What kind of fizzy would you like?"

I kept asking her what a fizzy was and I finally realized she was referring to pop.

I used to call it pop until I moved to LA and then Soda was the word.
Even after I moved back to Wisconsin I still call it soda, my husband calls it
pop.

Grew up drinking "pop", now I drink "soda". Don't exactly remember when I got converted.

Always called it pop since I can remember. I do recollect my mom telling me a story about going back to Baltimore to visit relatives where she grew up. She asked the kids if they wanted a pop...and they backed off. Thought she was gonna pop them one.
