Growing up I always called it pop...I am sure those old wegmans commercials for their brand of soda had something to do with it ;) WPOP...its DYNOMITE! but yea then going over some friends houses..their fam always called it soda...at first as i was confused..but then it grew on me. Then as i got older I just started calling every carbinated bev. Coke...like ppl from the south call it. It just made sense to me...coke is my fav brand/ drink. --["Users/justinm"]

I'm from Rochester and have lived here most of my life but have never called it "Pop" and don't think I know anyone who does. I didn't even know we were supposed to be a "Pop" town. It’s always been "Soda" to me. Now I’m curious and will have to pay more attention to which word people say. It could very well be that I’ve heard both all along but never really noticed. --["ZedOmega"]

The "pop" part of the country is pretty weak. The Pacific Northwest is the cultural high point of the pop part the map. Seattle's nice, but it's no Boston, Los Angeles, New York, or San Francisco. Nope. Soda is for cultured people. Pop drinkers plow the fields and feed hogs. --["CedrickStanton"]

Benighted uncultured farmers from the midwest refer to it as pop. From this day forward I will only call it soda. Thanks for the link! --["CedrickStanton"]
