Pepsi v. Coke v. RC

I think in some parts of the States they ARE used equivalently.

Pop and Cola are two different things (at least by definition), whereas Pop and Soda are the same (by definition, when Pop is assumed a beverage).

Cola is a subgroup of Pop (or Soda), flavoured with Kola nut or similar.

I drink extremely large amounts of soda when I have the ability to do so (Expensive unforunately) money is the only real limit on my consumption of it.

RC here is cheap, and not sold much anymore but is savoury and imo better than your everyday coke/pepsi.

I guess it's non-availability makes it a refreshing taste

I do find a glass particularly delicious after prolonged consumption of other Colas. Variety is the spice of life after all.

This reminds me of when I visit Scotland and for some reason everyone seems to call every kind of drink "Juice"

Just remember, dentist bills are pretty steep too, later in life...

Heh, which is why you drink'em through a straw!

Seriously, apparently that does less damage to your teeth.

I don't drink cola, where is my option?

In the bar!

Soda is also called "Natron" or "Sodium carbonate" which is Na₂[CO₃], a mineral salt. It's just for the carbon dioxide - they use it all

 

In europe / germany we have "Schwipp Schwapp" from Pepsi or "Mezzo Mix" from Coke which are cola and orange - i prefer this over all

Yeah it's just common vernacular here. Odd thing is when someone says do you want juice, most people instantly assume soda or cola... they're right. It's rather odd come to think of it.

In some areas in the South, they refer to all sodas as Cokes. "What kind of coke would you like?"

Even Pepsi products.

I don't know. Doesn't seem as big of a disconnect, if this thread has proved anything it's that some people don't know there's a difference.. I mean with "Juice" you usually think of fruit juices rather than soda or coke drinks.

[Guest]

Y'all need to drink lime juice with honey.

Go organic.

Seriously, 3-5 glasses will make you have the slickest poo.

[PhantomWarlock]

Does Coke also mean Coka-Cola? That's what we call'em in Dah South!

 

Also, most popular cokes, I mean sodas, are made by the same company. (EX: Mountain Dew, Coka-Cola)

Here in the South-East, some people call soda "Tonic." I remember my grandma told me a story where she went up north and asked where the "tonic" is in a convenience store, and the person went and got her hair tonic.

Lets be fair our army look better too. Red and white combat fatigues? Its like facing an army of bloody santas. Blue is my favourite colour.

Although I don't drink any Cola I voted Pepsi because I used to drink it heavily before.

[Headshotkill]

Coke, and because I said that it's the only true answer...
