Alright Midwest peeps let’s settle this heated debate.
Pop or Soda?
I’d just like to know why STL and the central IL region is so deep in saying “soda”. Granted, any time I’ve headed up to Chicago I don’t think I’ve heard “pop” so I’m not sure how ubiquitous it is in most of IL even including Chicago. But having not grown up there I can’t say myself.
Anyways, it’s definitely soda in most of IL. Don’t think I’ve ever heard it called pop there, other than by my grandma who was from the southside of Chicago.
It’s absolutely pop in Chicagoland area, where I grew up. I knew I was “downstate” when I started hearing soda, which to me used to be a float (pop with ice cream in it).
Pop normally, but I switch to soda when traveling.
Next question should be gym shoes, tennis shoes, or sneakers.
What I’d like to know is if the grass needs mowing or the grass needs mowed?
Michigander here - Pop.
So we’re fighting already? lmao
