If you go to the Market Basket in Concord the aisle sign still says Tonic over the aisle with Coke and Pepsi. I don't know if they have Moxie.

I grew up in Northeast Mass and my family always called it Tonic. My wife grew up in the same town and she claims to have never heard the term. Go figure.
I was in Iowa for work and asked the office manager where i could find a soda machine. "why do you need a sewing machine?" she asked. When I explained that I wanted a diet coke, she said "oh, you want a pop".
