Worth Knowing
Soft drink became a useful label partly because it separated nonalcoholic drinks from hard alcoholic drinks; the local words people use for the same drink stayed much messier.
How The Map Works
Votes use browser location or ZIP backup, are grouped by national, state, and county result maps, and are live self-selected responses rather than a scientific poll. Exact GPS is not stored in public results.
