I'm with Tonya. In the tri-state area, NY, NJ, CT, any carbonated drink, exept seltzer, is called soda. If you want a Coke, you ask for Coke, or Pepsi, or 7-Up, whichever one you want. I remember the first time I read someone refer to soda as "pop" and thought it so goofy Then again, I found out that in other parts of the country, a Danish is called a "sweet roll." It's a big country!
