I find that interesting since everyone in my family would rather have Sweet Valley Cola than any other type. I also see alot of Bubba Cola and Vess Cola when I go to friend's houses. I only know one person who actually prefers Coke or Pepsi (Pepsi in her case) over a smaller name brand. I have to say though that sweet valley cola is the nectar of the gods. : )
Since I've never even heard of those brands, it is probably a regional difference. But from what I've seen, Coke and Pepsi are pretty much the overall beverages of choice, followed by Mountain Dew (Pepsi) and then Sprite (Coke). Even amongst non-colas, Dr. Pepper is about the only smaller brand I see a lot of. At work they sometimes have a wide variety of free pop cans in a vat of ice water, and if you see someone reaching deep into the vat it is usually a Pepsi, Coke, or Mountain Dew they are fishing for.
