I can understand calling it “pop” but calling all soda “coke” seems really strange to me but maybe I just haven’t hung around enough southerners?
I agree, coke is either the brand, or the nose candy
My paternal family is all southern. I’ve never heard anyone use coke as a generic term.
My grandma did it. “Do you want a coke?””Sure””What would you like, we’ve got Dr Pepper and Sprite” was a normal conversation. Absolutely absurd.
I think this is more regional than the map would suggest. I heard this all the time. Even said it. And if you wanted Coca Cola when asked what type of coke, you could just say 'regular'. Pronounced 'rag-lur'.
