I live in a "soda" state, although I lived in a "pop" state for a few years of my youth. It was during those years that I recall accompanying the family to the local The Pop Shoppe to return empty glass bottles, and replenish the family stores.

We call it ginger - no idea why - maybe because Irn Bru is ginger coloured

ReplyDelete"Wanna Coke?"
"Sure."

Freaky!
