Soda/Pop
 
I guess this kind has to/kind of doesn't have to deal with Japanese food. But I've always been kind of curious what everyone else calls stuff like Pepsi or Coke. I know by their names, but the reason being is where I live (Illinois, USA) we call it that stuff pop here and every other state/country I've been to they call it soda. So, what do you guys hear more where you live- soda or pop?

Pop. I wonder what it's called in Japan.

ItalianLeather 02-12-2008 11:57 PM

Same here, though I'm very picky.
I dislike all the 'brown' ones. So I stick to 7up usually~

Pjok 02-13-2008 05:51 PM

Slykaz1 02-13-2008 06:06 PM

I call it soda. and cocaina....coke originally made drugs.....^_^
in spanish I've heard : soda, pekci, coca


One time we cut the label off the two liter and folded it exactly in half and put it to the light and you could see the drawing of the "devil" or atleast it looked like a bearded man's face with horns and fire around it...pretty neat if you ask me.

Marlene 02-13-2008 06:17 PM

Where I live, we call it Coca Cola. :rolleyes:

ilovedaisuke7 02-13-2008 06:22 PM

In my state, we call it soda. XD

luyus 02-21-2008 11:20 PM

I call it either soda or pop, depends on who I'm around.
What is Japanese soda called? Could someone give some brands please?

artificalflavor 02-22-2008 12:05 AM

We call it soda, i find it strange that anyone calls it "pop", i guess that that's just because i've never had anyone i know call it that.
By the way, i'm not shure how to say soda in japanease, but a type of soda that they have over there is Ramune soda. I've gotten it at certian stores here and it's realy good! It comes in all sorts of flavors. I think that it's fairly common in lots of different places, anyone that has ever been to an Asian Market should know what i'm talking about.
