That is the soft drink called Big Red in the US. I believe it is a rule that all Southerns must have it in their childhood. I have very fond memories of drinking the stuff as a kid but the few times I've tried it as an adult, the sweetness level was deadly.
So, are carbonated drinks called soda, pop, soda pop, soft drinks or coke (used as a generic much like kleenix) where y'all are?
