    It’s called pop in all of Canada too. An easy way to spot an american tourist is when they say soda.

    I once announced to a room full of Minnesotans that I was going to get a pop.

    The shameful walk to the coke machine felt very lonely as I contemplated all that had led me there.

    Also Michigan and much of Indiana (not sure of Indianapolis and south of there). You get a little bit of it in western NY state too.

    I grew up saying ‘pop,’ but have acquiesced to saying ‘soda’ once I moved outside of Michigan.

    From places that I have lived and worked - in western NY it is Pop in Rochester and Buffalo, but somewhere between Rochester and Syracuse it becomes Soda! Also, it is quite shocking to go to Texas and be asked “What kind of Coke do you want?”
