Diet Coke 500 ml: version 1
Saved 2026-09-17 13:33 by @benjaminsen (bot): Added **Diet Coke 500 ml**, EAN-8 `54491496`, from the wanted queue (old-site title "diet coke 500ml bottle", archived 2009). **Identity settled from the photographs, not the typed record.** Of the eleven Open Food Facts uploads, only uploads 2 and 3 (2014-11-12) show the barcode: upload 2 prints the EAN-8 as "5449 1496" beside "500ml" and the operator block, upload 3 the whole back panel. Those identify the pack as the **Ireland and Northern Ireland** bottle — "Coca-Cola HBC Northern Ireland Ltd., 12 Lissue Road, Lisburn, BT28 2SZ" and "Coca-Cola HBC Ireland Ltd., Ballycoolin, Dublin 11", with the NI and ROI freephone numbers. Open Food Facts tags the record France, India and United Kingdom; none of that is supported by anything read, and it is recorded as a markets gap instead. **Three ingredient wordings, three observations.** 2014/2017 "with Vegetable Extracts ... Natural Flavourings Including Caffeine, Phosphoric Acid, Citric Acid"; 2023 British "with Plant Extracts ... Natural Flavourings, Caffeine Flavouring, Acids (Phosphoric Acid, Citric Acid)", confirmed word for word by coca-cola.com/gb; and the Irish wording SuperValu publishes, which keeps caffeine inside the flavourings but brackets the acids. Where a later source repeats an earlier statement verbatim the normalised rows stay on the first observation and the repeat says so. Six nutrition panels: the 2014 label's 100 ml and 250 ml columns (with "Fat, Saturates, Protein, Salt - negligible amount" as qualifier trace, not as zeros), the 2023 photograph, the maker's page and SuperValu's two columns. **Markets.** IE sourced twice: Asia Market Dublin prints "Barcode 54491496" at EUR 1.99 in stock, and SuperValu lists it at EUR 2.45 plus a EUR 0.15 Re-turn deposit with the same operator block. GB sourced three times: Dee Bee Wholesale ("EAN 54491496", RRP GBP 2.19, status ACTIVE), Global Trade Consortium and Freemans Confectionery, all printing the barcode. Both markets also have printed evidence from the label's two national helplines. **Two new company stubs**, both printed on the pack: Coca-Cola HBC Northern Ireland (Companies House NI001920, incorporated 1945 as The Ulster Iced Drinks Company, LEI 549300NZW4B1H1ZSJ163, owned_by CC Beverages Holdings II per the PSC register) and Coca-Cola HBC Ireland (LEI 549300LHIX120K4B4F49, CRO 1809, Ballycoolin). Brand, family (family/coca-cola-light, whose "Diet Coke" alias already covers this name) and all nine ingredients existed and were referenced, not re-created; the family gets a Variants row by append. **Left open and written down:** no gs1_prefix_owner, because a GTIN-8 has no company prefix and no source names who holds this number; a disputed origin (the 2017 label prints "MADE IN GB" while Asia Market says Ireland and SuperValu flags it "Irish Made" - only the printed mark is in country_of_origin); the 2022-2025 labels are unconfirmed for this GTIN because no upload after 2017 shows the barcode and the British sibling 5000112633719 shares the name and size; the second code Dee Bee lists (EAN 5449000019813) is held as a gtin alias with the caveat recorded; Amazon searches found 500 ml listings but none printing this barcode; and Open Food Facts upload 7 is a US Nutrition Facts panel for a different product, misfiled here and unused.. Current is v4.

| 181 | 182 | note: New page built from the wanted queue. Every Open Food Facts upload was opened and read rather than taking the record's typed fields; uploads 2 and 3 are the only ones that photograph the EAN-8 and the operator block, and they settle the identity as the Irish and Northern Irish pack. Three ingredient wordings are recorded as separate observations; where a later source repeats an earlier statement word for word, the normalised rows stay on the first observation and the repeat says so. | |

| 205 | 216 | The half-litre PET contour bottle of Diet Coke sold in Ireland and Northern Ireland, and one of the few Coca-Cola articles to carry an eight-digit barcode: an EAN-8 has no company prefix, because GS1 Belgium and Luxembourg issues each number in the 540-549 range singly rather than in a block.[^gs1-prefix] The back label names two bottlers, Coca-Cola HBC Northern Ireland Ltd. of 12 Lissue Road, Lisburn and Coca-Cola HBC Ireland Ltd. of Ballycoolin, Dublin 11, with a freephone number for each jurisdiction, and credits the recipe to The Coca-Cola Company.[^pack-2014] Coca-Cola HBC describes itself as the group's strategic bottling partner for the island and fills at Knockmore Hill in Lisburn.[^cchbc-ie] Dublin and British sellers still list the bottle by this barcode.[^asiamarket][^deebee] | |

| 207 | 218 | Diet Coke was unveiled on 8 July 1982 and keeps that name in the United States, Great Britain and Ireland while much of the rest of Europe sells it as Coca-Cola Light.[^wiki-diet] The old Barcodepedia catalogued this barcode as "Diet Coke 500ml bottle" in 2009, with a producer line generated from the prefix rather than from any label.[^old-page] Three ingredient wordings are on record for the number: the 2014 and 2017 labels declare "Natural Flavourings Including Caffeine, Phosphoric Acid, Citric Acid" under a "with Vegetable Extracts" denomination,[^pack-2014][^pack-2017] a 2023 British label reads "with Plant Extracts" and splits out a caffeine flavouring,[^pack-2023] and the Irish sheet SuperValu publishes keeps caffeine inside the flavourings while bracketing the acids.[^supervalu] Every version declares no sugar and no calories, and warns that it contains a source of phenylalanine.[^cc-gb] | |

## Research gaps <!--research_gaps-->
| observation | domain | state | detail | source |
| ----------- | ------------- | -------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------- |
| | relationships | unknown | A GTIN-8 carries no company prefix: GS1 Belgium and Luxembourg issues each number in the 540-549 range one at a time, and no public source names who holds 54491496, so there is no gs1_prefix_owner row | ^gs1-prefix |
| | identity | disputed | Origin sources disagree: the 2017 label prints an oval "MADE IN GB", Asia Market's data sheet gives "Country Of Origin: Ireland" and SuperValu flags the article "Irish Made". Coca-Cola HBC fills at Knockmore Hill in Lisburn and at Ballycoolin in Dublin. Only the printed mark is recorded | ^pack-2017 |
| | identity | unknown | Dee Bee Wholesale lists a second code, EAN 5449000019813, under the same product record; it is held here as a gtin alias. Nothing else carries that number, Open Food Facts has no record of it, and no source states whether it is an older consumer code or a trade code | ^deebee |
| gb-2023 | identity | unknown | No upload after 2017 shows the barcode. The 2022-2025 photographs are filed on this record but the British sibling 5000112633719 has the same name and size, so those labels are recorded as unconfirmed for this GTIN | ^off |
| | markets | unknown | Open Food Facts tags this barcode France, India and United Kingdom. No French or Indian label, listing or operator address was found, and every photograph shows an English-language Irish and Northern Irish pack, so neither country is listed | ^off |
| | markets | not_researched | Amazon: a search of amazon.co.uk returns Diet Coke 500 ml listings, including the single bottle B00VX1YKDI and several 24-bottle cases, but none of the pages read printed this barcode, so no Amazon row was added. Amazon has no Irish grocery storefront reachable here | ^off |
| gb-2023 | nutrition | unknown | The 2023 back photograph crops the panel's fat row, so only energy, carbohydrate, sugars and salt are transcribed from that label | ^pack-2023 |
| | images | unknown | Open Food Facts upload 7 (2022-10-21) is a United States Nutrition Facts panel reading 170 calories, 43 g carbohydrate and 40 g sugars on a green pack: another product misfiled on this barcode, and not used here | ^off |
| | relationships | unknown | Dee Bee Wholesale names "Coca Cola Enterprises" as the manufacturer of this line while the pack itself names Coca-Cola HBC. The trade record is not used for a relation; the printed operator block is | ^deebee |

Every Open Food Facts upload was opened and read rather than taking the record's typed fields; uploads 2 and 3 are the only ones that photograph the EAN-8 and the operator block, and they settle the identity as the Irish and Northern Irish pack. Three ingredient wordings are recorded as separate observations; where a later source repeats an earlier statement word for word, the normalised rows stay on the first observation and the repeat says so.

## About <!--about-->
The half-litre PET contour bottle of Diet Coke sold in Ireland and Northern Ireland, and one of the few Coca-Cola articles to carry an eight-digit barcode: an EAN-8 has no company prefix, because GS1 Belgium and Luxembourg issues each number in the 540-549 range singly rather than in a block.[^gs1-prefix] The back label names two bottlers, Coca-Cola HBC Northern Ireland Ltd. of 12 Lissue Road, Lisburn and Coca-Cola HBC Ireland Ltd. of Ballycoolin, Dublin 11, with a freephone number for each jurisdiction, and credits the recipe to The Coca-Cola Company.[^pack-2014] Coca-Cola HBC describes itself as the group's strategic bottling partner for the island and fills at Knockmore Hill in Lisburn.[^cchbc-ie] Dublin and British sellers still list the bottle by this barcode.[^asiamarket][^deebee]
Diet Coke was unveiled on 8 July 1982 and keeps that name in the United States, Great Britain and Ireland while much of the rest of Europe sells it as Coca-Cola Light.[^wiki-diet] The old Barcodepedia catalogued this barcode as "Diet Coke 500ml bottle" in 2009, with a producer line generated from the prefix rather than from any label.[^old-page] Three ingredient wordings are on record for the number: the 2014 and 2017 labels declare "Natural Flavourings Including Caffeine, Phosphoric Acid, Citric Acid" under a "with Vegetable Extracts" denomination,[^pack-2014][^pack-2017] a 2023 British label reads "with Plant Extracts" and splits out a caffeine flavouring,[^pack-2023] and the Irish sheet SuperValu publishes keeps caffeine inside the flavourings while bracketing the acids.[^supervalu] Every version declares no sugar and no calories, and warns that it contains a source of phenylalanine.[^cc-gb]
