witesoxfan Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ May 15, 2008 -> 12:54 PM) I called it pop as well. Not sure what's going on Sheridan or Wells county, but in Burleigh (pronounced like Buehrle) we call it pop. And so do I. Anybody else who calls it anything else who may even think about calling it anything else...is wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stuff with the real sugar is much better than the corn syrup stuff we've gotten used to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Gleason Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 Any bubbly drink (soda, pop, whatever) made with Cane Sugar smokes the corn syrup versions. Sprecher makes a cola, Puma Cola, which is incredible and a dang close clone of the original cola styles. I really, really, really want to try some of this stuff: http://www.dublindrpepper.com/ I need to just bite the bullet and order a case. As for what to call it...well...since it is made with soda water...ummmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cali Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 I call it soda, but I rarely drink it... I ask for it by name if I do. Coke/Mountain Dew/Barqs etc. I have no problem with "Pop", but that's a little too general of a term. Asking for a pop is like going to a bar and saying "Gimme a Beer" There's more than one kind. You gotta be specific. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Controlled Chaos Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 Any one ever hit that coca cola place in Vegas? I went there years ago, but I remember being able to try different drinks from all over the world. Some weird flavors out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MHizzle85 Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ May 15, 2008 -> 02:01 PM) I used to say pop, now I say soda. Not sure why, all my friends call it pop. I just like the way soda sounds more than pop. I don't even know you anymore. I call it pop, and prefer Pepsi. Even though my #1 choice is Dr. Pepper.

Rex Hudler Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 (edited) Diet Dr. Pepper is easily the best diet drink made. Diet Cherry Coke is a solid #2. But these days, I drink 90% water. Edited May 18, 2008 by Rex Hudler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You gotta be specific. See, pop/soda really isn't a term you should use in public areas, unless it's fountain drink and you have to buy the drink at the counter. If you're at a friends house, they'll say "do you want a (pop/soda/vodka-Sprite) or beer or water or something?" and you say "(whatever)." That's pretty much the only time I ever really refer to it as pop(/soda/Morgan-Coke) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Beast Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 I couldn't help reading this thread and remembering a scene from Billy Madison: Janitor: Miss Libby's car...is green...Billy likes to drink soda! Yeah, I've been cutting back recently on the pop because I just find Gatorade tastes better and milk is better for you than pop with pizza. I can't stand water unless I'm umpiring on a hot day and it's what I need to keep my mouth hydrated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3E8 Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 Any cola made with real cane sugar instead of high fructose corn syrup is best. And you guys adamantly arguing about the soda/pop thing are ridiculous. Take that passion and cure a disease Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
