I call it soda, didn't know most people in Colorado say pop...weirdoes...:p

 

Well the popvssoda website showed that Colorado has gotten more green, so I guess it isn't as strange to say soda anymore.

What's wrong with calling it pop? I think you're the weirdo.

Actually though I think we just randomly say one or the other. Sometimes I hear people say pop, sometimes the same people say soda. It's like they are two words for the same thing!

I think the reason for that is because the original name was Soda Pop a long time ago. Eventually people just started calling it one or the other. This is based purley on speculation though.

Actually i believe the original names were Phosphate Soda and Soda Water.

 

Where did the Pop come from?  I think it's not that hard to understand.  What happens when you pour carbonated soda?  A lot of bubbles form.  Which pop... pretty loudly and noticeably.
