I Love Being Back in the Land of 'Pop'

I think we need an appreciation for our regional use of the word “pop.”

I grew up in Pop Country, but went to college and lived in solid-red “Soda” territory until earlier this year.

It was awful! The indignity of having to say “soda” after a confused party wouldn’t take your choice of pop.

I first noticed it at Scotti’s when our waitress asked us what “pop” we wanted. No joke, it was in a bottle!

I haven’t picked up on it too much yet, but at UDF yesterday, I took a picture of the twins celebrating an entire aisle of ice cream and noticed in the background it said “Wine & Pop.”

Pop Forever.
