I like Ski a lot. I didn't realize it was a regional soda when I was a kid. I thought it was everywhere like Coke.
When I was a kid I read about people drinking soda and I had no idea what it was. It probably wasn't until I was well into my teens that I realized it was the American word for pop.
I was the same way with "pop" when I was a kid. The only people I ever heard call it pop were our relatives from Indiana. Actually, I don't use the word soda that often. I live in the area where people generally refer to everything as a Coke, or we call it by the actual name. I remember my grandparents generation would often call them "cold drinks."
