I grew up with pop, but we kids of the 70's used to drink a lot of house brand flavor sodas (orange,strawberry,grape etc) Not name brand expensive colas.
Try Drawling "Pop" or "Soda"...It just doesnt drawl like long O  "Coke"

My Mrs is British and she says Pop for any sugary beverage.  In my house it was a Soader aor Soady Pop.

What a crazy survey... I'd say they completely missed the mark in central Oklahoma, where I NEVER heard anything but "pop".  Southeast Oklahoma, known as "Little Dixie" might use the term coke, but if they do the rest of the State would NEVER repeat it!

In Colombia, it's definitely Coca-Cola, but it tastes better when your south of the border. Local Spanish stores sell it and YES it's our drink, Imported. Why? Because the original formula contained SUGAR, real sugar, as in cane fields, or beets. In the USA, the $$ wise company switched to corn sweeteners some time ago. I don't know the market share in Colombia, but would suspect it ranks with or just below the national soft drink, "Colombiana", which is also worth buying in a local Spanish store or restaurant. Colombiana, is a sort of cream soda with a champagne like bubbly.

Yes, I know, "Colombia has COKE!" yeah, but I bet Miami has more!! Anyway the Coca Leaf does NOT DO A THING to you, and is rather like chewing the leaf of a scrub oak tree, they even look pretty much the same.
Until the leaves are ground into pulp, and mixed with white lime, Coca is harmless. Mixed with lime, it becomes a Hollywood cocktail. Makes me wonder which version of coke was in the original COKE?
