Not everywhere in the US uses it like that. See this map (http://popvssoda.com:2998/).

You're right, it depends on where in the US you live. I.E., in New Orleans, where I grew up, Pepsi products aren't available, and I grew up with the expression "What kind of coke do you want?". When I moved further north it became "pop", and my brother, who is our version of a Yankee, has always said "soda".

And in the areas that are just left white, they don't get to drink fizzy drinks at all - or they do but don't call them anything.

Or else, no one bothered to poll those areas b/c who cares what the moose in Montana prefer? :-) Of course, there's quite a bit of fancy Arizona in the blank area, but those guys don't drink sodas, they drink wine. Hence, the dots labeled "other."
