Lived in Midwest (Michigan and Cincinnati) and Southwest (Arizona).
Noon meal: all regions used lunch.
Evening meal: all regions used dinner. Supper was used in Michigan, but dinner was said most of the time.
Carbonated beverage: pop in Midwest, Coke in AZ. And in Michigan, your only ginger ale is Vernor's ... don't give us that weak *** Canada Dry.
We all pushed a shopping cart, but interchanged grocery store and supermarket. Although Cincinnatians simply say they're going to Krogers (with the 's' on the end.)
A three way in Cincinnati is referring chili, not a ménage a trois like it would be just about anywhere else.
And in Michigan, with the older generation, you sat on the davenport not the couch. None of those regions really said the word sofa very much.
We never used dinner for lunch. Lansing girl here, what region in MI are you in?
It sure is!!!

Growing up in Michigan it was always breakfast, lunch/dinner, and supper. The word "dinner" was referred to like "Sunday dinner", the noon meal.
About the only time we use the word "dinner" meaning the evening meal is when we're on a cruise as that's what they call it.
