All I can hear you saying is that you like water with a small amount of syrup and colour thrown in.

When each box of syrup is 50lbs, a little goes along way. It also depends on how the restaurant mixes it. Were I work we mix ours more strong then normal.

It far better then “Soda”, soda is just carbonated water.

Oh. You mean “soda.”

When I was a kid, there was an old soda fountain in a drug store that was still making it the old fashioned way, mixing syrup with soda water. Now THAT is proper soda.

Wrong, it’s pop. Not Soda. I have a soda stream, & it’s great. You carbonate the water, then put in the syrup.

The chains water down their pop to keep cost down, where I work we mix ours with good amount of syrup.

When I first moved to Wisconsin I was so confused when I heard kids say “Pop” I always thought that was something old people said. Like it used to be popular but died out in the 70s. Even my parents always said soda, or coke

To each their own. I still call it soda. In Scotland they call it a ginger. Other places they call it a fizz or fizzy.

Fun fact: in most of Colombia, we call it gaseosa which means soda in English, but it’s literally “gaseous drink” or “gassy drink”.

We do also say soda, but when referring to soda water.

And as much as I love the designs that Pininfarina makes, I HATE the taste of the soda that comes out of their newfangled mutli-soda-pop machines. The Coke never tastes right. It always tastes like there are three different sodas all mixed together. Why is it so dam hard to make a good looking soda dispenser that actually works right?

I think a paper cup and from the fountain is the worst. I think the texture of the paper causes it to lose carbonation, and it tastes like a disolved paper cup.

I live in Atlanta and have never heard anyone say “coke” when referring to a drink that isn’t Coke. I still have no clue why people say that this is a thing.

Give me something like a Taco Bell soda fountain.

This. Fountain decimates all, but only when mixed correctly which is almost never.

A friend of mine who is a bartender contracted me to help him properly dial in the coke at his restaurant. It’s perfect, although I had to drink enough coke to kill a horse.

Oooooh now you gone done it... thems fightin words.... fizzy drink, soda pop.... what kind of animal are you? Are you trying to get beat up? The correct term is pop. Not soda pop, not soda, not fizzy drink, not fucking coke.... its pop. It’s pretty funny how territorial the term for pop, or soft drink, or whatever you want to call it, is. But around the northern Ohio border and parts north, its pop.
