THANK YOU VERY MUCH: EVERYONE! 19 so far, I appreciate this SO much

So, for school, we are looking at the different ways people pronounce things from across the nation. There are only 4 questions, and I need to find as many people as I can from as many states as possible. So! If you live in the U.S., I could really use your help!

Here are the questions:

1) How do you pronounce "caramel". Spell it phonetically for me ("Care-Uh-Mell", "Car-Uh-Mell", "Car-Mell", etc.)

2) How do you refer to a group of friends all at once?

3) Mountain Dew, Dr. Pepper and Sprite are all ______?

4) The general name for places where you shop for food is ____?

Thats it!

The results are collected by the entire class, and plotted on a map. I can post the results if anyone is curious.

If you decide to help me out, please post the following information as well:

1) Name (it can be a fake one)
2) Age
3) Occupation
4) State you live in

Thanks in advance anyone kind enough to take the few minutes out of their day to help me
