2When I was a kid if you mixed all the POP flavours together we called it a "graveyard". If you ordered that the waitress would understand. My husband is from Ontario and he calls it "swampwater". Neither of us had ever heard the other term.

1When I refer to soft drinks in general, I say 'pop'. However, mainly in cases of peer pressure, I would be comfortable calling it just about anything save for 'coke' or derivations thereof. Coke is a brand, trademarked by the Coca-Cola Company, and I personally don't really like the taste of it (though I'll drink it if no other pop is available). Seems rather idiotic to refer to any brand of pop as one specific brand. (The one exception is if I'm talking about a specific flavour of pop, such as cream or grape soda those sound better with 'soda' then they do with 'pop'. The exception to THIS is that I say 'orange pop'.)
