Around here, and I think in most of North America, just about everybody calls gelatin dessert Jell-O, although Jell-O is just a trademarked brand owned by Kraft Foods. They own most of the gelatin dessert market in this area though - I can't even think of one competing brand.

I've never seen Mr. Pibb sold above, say, Georgia. They certainly do not sell it in the NY/NJ area. The few times I've had it I've enjoyed it, though.

Sure they do. Shop-rite and Quik-Chek carry it, but not the 7-11. I have 2 bottles of Mr. Pibb in my fridge.

Whelp, not entirely but yes, they are both a Coca Cola brand but Mr Pibb has a more "cherry" flavor so they say...

i was surprised people actually called it pop when i got down here. seems like all my st louis area friends call it soda, which is what everyone from the northeast says as well.

Oh, and it's not a bubbler. Nor is it a water fountain. It is a drinking fountain, please spread the goddamn word.

Stupid me, when my boys called me tonight and asked if I wanted to go out drinking, I thought they meant going to a bar....

Did they ask you if you wanted to go out to a drinking fountain?

Re: Soda or Pop ???
 

last summer in mexico i asked for a Fresca and the mexicano's laughed at me and told me "they wished."

"fresca" is slang for "lesbians" in spanish.

Re: Soda or Pop ???
 

i never see fresca anywhere but the grocery store. is it common where you live or something? like, in restaurants?
