Heck I am so old I remember when Coke went from 5 cents to 6 cents!!!! A penny was a penny back then!!! and the town the bottle was made in was on the bottom of the bottle!! Go figure?????
A bottle of pop with a handful of peanuts in it

We had Miss Peggy at Dr. Pete Tillery's drug store in downtown Macon. They had the awesomest Coke fountain you ever saw and Miss Peggy would serve us up some real cherry cokes whenever we went. Yummy.
Yup and a lot of them said "Macon" cause there was a huge Cocola plant in Macon for a long time.

One of the employees at Schrader's Chevron, when the Coke machines still dispensed bottles and the content was marked by the corresponding bottle cap must have found a Budweiser cap somewhere. Doing his restocking duties he must have emptied one of the products and replaced the marking bottle cap with that Bud cap. Customer after customer came complaining that they had not recieved a Bud when they pushed that button

In the Navy we called it the 'roach coach' - they made a killing on the piers after working hours.

RC Cola was the drink of choice for the crowd (tobacco field workers) I grew up with. And to change it up from peanuts in the bottle, occasionally we sprang for a Moonpie to go with our RC. Good times!

Yep, and RC and a 3 ply Moon Pie was great too. I haven't had either one in years!
OH yea! The South... Moon pies, Vienna sausage, soda crackers, and RC Cola, but were called all so called " soda pop" just Coke!!!
I lived in Missouri 37 years after moving there from S W Ga. I would bring back green peanuts from there every so often, boil them in yea salty water and let some buds there try them. They either loved them or hated them, no in between!
Royal Crown bottling had a plant in my hometown of Greenville SC. Neighbor lady worked there. I had access to free RC but never cared for it.
These chairs came from that RC facility when it closed. I have 6 of them. They have to be 30+ years old. Always outdoors. Some places are a little sun bleached but not 1 crack. Carbon fiber? I dont know. I know they're a lot better than the white vynil stuff available.
Wife just reminded me that those white ones dumped her brother on his butt twice

I used to put Goobers ( chocolate covered peanuts) in my bottle of Teem pop. I'm surprised the OP used the term "pop" from KS. My daughter lived in Alabama for a few years and she said all pop was referred to as coke. Soda, or pop in NY, depending on where you are.
She is correct. In the deep south all "soft drinks" are referred to as Coke, whether it be Pepsi, Nehi, Dr. Pepper, etc.

This. Everything is a Coke. My buddy was just here and had a guy from another country with him. I asked him what kind of Coke they wanted as I opened the fridge. He asked the guy in his language same thing. Guy thought it was funny since I had a large assortment and not a one was Coke. I was out of Coke.
No Valencia... do they still plant the little Spanish?? OK I am 50 years behind! Anyway... boiled peanuts are a staple of the south for sure,,,,born to it!!!! A Yank would call it an acquired taste!
