Pop too!? You and New England folks roll that out. That may be the only thing that yall have in common with New England, by the way.

Dive joints, hole in the wall places, run down, whatever...does not keep me away if the "aroma" gets me. That of course and the place needs to be clean or we are talking about a death wish. But run down never stopped me. Especially travelling cross country.

I live in New England and I've never heard anyone call it pop unless they're from the south.

I've heard some locals call it Coke even when it's not Coke though.

Here we just call it soda.

Ok I should have said Boston area. That is where I hear the term "Pop" used and this goes way back. No idea why but they have a few terms that kind of interesting. I've also hear soda called "moxie" and that is a brand name that is hard to come by anywhere on the east coast but Boston, from my limited experience. Do you have moxie in your neck of the woods?

We do have Moxie and the old-timers in my town can be seen with those bright orange cans all summer.


And now that you mention it, I've noticed that the people of Boston have a unique colloquial language and their own accent. So interesting!

Orange cans would be new to me. I have only seen bottles.

Yes unique and interesting! Sometimes I need a translator but that is ok. They sure like to be unique up there.

Once you get it out of the oven, slather it on a cracker. Top it with a sliver of a nice mild white cheese, then top that with a dollop of blueberry cobbler.
