    You speak the truth there, Viva.

    Is pop an Americanism or do they call it soda?

    I’ve always seen it as a quintessentially British term.

    Americans say soda, Canadians say pop. Pop because the original carbonated drink had a spherical glass thingy you pushed down to open the bottle. It then logged in the bottle itself so you could drink it and pushing it down produced a popping sound.

    Bit of carbonated drink trivia for you there chaps.
