    “What will you have to drink dear?”

    “A coke.”

    “Sure, what kind?”

    “Dr Pepper please.”

    It wasn’t until I was in a foreign language class in HS that our teacher called out this behavior. They said, if you ask for a “coke” in Europe, you’ll receive a “Coke.” We all thought that was odd… At least at first.
