Geographically we all call a fizzy beverage something different. So what do you call a carbonated can of salt, sugar and calories?

We lived in California for quite sometime, and we always called it Soda. Then we moved to Minnesota for a time, where it was called pop. I got made fun of for calling it soda! LOL

Nowadays we call it soda. Heck we just call it by it's name- Coke, Sprite, ect usually.

No... toothpaste is toothpaste, I've actually never tried Colgate, and the washroom/toilet is called "bathroom". It's funny how all this is family and regionally biased.

I call it soda but everyone in my family calls ALL carbonated beverages "coke". How about a shopping cart? Cart or Buggy?
