since both "coke" & "pepsi" fall under the classification of "soda, pop, or tonic".


for example- when you walk into say.... BK, you ask what kind of "soda, pop or tonic" do they have...
they reply- "coke, sprite, rootbeer, orange ...."

asking what kind of "coke" do they have really makes no sense because coke is synonymous with that "soda / pop or tonic" in a red can called coca-cola?

I could be wrong- just thinking how it could get confusing for the server...

I just get an image of a pimply faced teen saying "I'll have to ask my manager".

Soda here in Maine.

If I say I want a Coke...that means I want Coca-Cola...and if they don't have it the server will ask "Pepsi ok?".
