I grew up in Wisconsin, with the exception of 4 years in Minnesota. MN was hardcore "pop", but I found that "pop" and "soda" were used almost equally in WI. The "pop-sayers" were mostly in the rural areas it seemed, or the people raised there, whilst we city-dwellers mostly used the term "soda."

It is just FREAKISH how exactly right that map is! And then if you click on Wisconsin, it lists it by county. I grew up in Kenosha County: almost 50/50 - pop/soda...
Freakish, and entirely amusing.
