We always called it coke, because 90% of the time it was. Most other kids used pop. Nobody called it soda. Soda was what your parents kept in the bar to make drinks.
Freshie: I remember that stuff too back in the 60s!

Tahiti Treat or Kickapoo Joy Juice anyone?
Stubby chocolate soda?

   

Pop.

Leave it to Hurley to find a graph about this...

   

pic a pop,still got an unopened bottle of that stuff in the basement.

   

Actually, I'd seen that map before, and just went and found it again to post here. I love maps. There's a great blog on maps: strangemaps.wordpress.com, though that's not where I saw this one.

   

Anyone know if Happy Pop is still around?

   

I don't think Happy Pop is (although Google Maps gives an address in the westend), but Pop Shoppe is available at some London Drugs in Edmonton.

Happy Pop is gone, it's hard to even find photos of the bottles. I just found a few pics and posted them on my blog:

Pop! Nesbitt's orange was my favourite in Bluenose country.

   

Aww man, choked me up a bit. Every family gatrhering growing up there was a crate of happy pop for the kids. Good times.

Also, I voted pop, and live in Edmonton.

   

Actually seeing one of those maps is the reason why I wanted to ask this question.

   

Nice necro....Here when they want to know if you want orange soda(pop) they just ask if you want fanta.

   

We always called it "mix".
