  Velcro, Hoover (in the UK), Band-Aid; there are tons of them. I’d say Tupperware is at that level, even if not officially so. I’d even argue Coke is - even if I know a palce only does Pepsi, I’m still going to ask for a Coke.

    There are parts of the US where they use soda; parts that use pop; and parts that use coke. In the latter, the following conversation is normal:

    Server: what kind of coke would you like?

    Me: root beer.

      Being from a “soda” location, this conversation makes my brain do a double take.
