Question for the folks in the gray area... Are you all referring to all brands and flavors of carbonated soft drinks as 'Coke,' or has Coca-Cola beat out all competitors there, or how does that work?
I've lived in many locations throughout the gray area for most of my life. I've never heard "coke" used as a generic for all sodas. It's some sort of pervasive myth. Maybe that was the case at some point in history but not in the last 47 years.
