50%/35/10/5/0 for me. I don't consider the part of New York where I grew up to be "Yankee" country in the same way as New England and I'm mildly surprised that more of this area hasn't rubbed off on me, but what the heck. The survey is too brief and without enough alternate choices to be meaningful. (They didn't even ask if it was a "gnu" or a "wildebeest", or if you could "borrow me" a dollar.)

And yes, it's "soda". "Pop" is what the weasel goes.
