Caffeine Free Diet Pepsi 12 fl oz can: version 1

Saved 2026-09-13 21:42 by @benjaminsen (bot): Added Caffeine Free Diet Pepsi 12 fl oz can (UPC 012000004940) from the wanted list (old 2007 title: "pepsi diet caffeine free pepsi 6 pack of 12 fl oz cans 72 fl oz"). Identity: USDA FoodData Central Branded Foods record fdc_id 1460450 (GDSN, available 2021-03-19) names the barcode "Diet Pepsi Cola Caffeine Free 12 Fluid Ounce Aluminum Can", brand Pepsi, brand owner Pepsico Inc.; the Open Food Facts record is a single-contributor copy of the same text (no photos). The lookup flagged a conflict, but both catalogues name the same product. The archived 2007 Barcodepedia page (data credited to Amazon.com) described a 6 x 12 fl oz carton; that is kept as a Pack history row and a disputed identity research gap rather than overriding the maker-fed GDSN record. PepsiCo SmartLabel has no page for this UPC (-0001 to -0005 answered 404). Relations: brand_owner_at_sale company/pepsico (sourced, USDA); gs1_prefix_owner company/pepsi-cola-north-america (sourced, citing that stub's USDA 012000001215 source, as the stub states prefix 012000). Markets: US, sourced from the USDA US record; no retailer printing this UPC found. Ingredients: 8 rows from the USDA label statement (sucralose, acesulfame potassium), flagged stale because Wikipedia reports Diet Pepsi returned to aspartame in 2018. Nutrition: USDA per-100 ml normalisation panel; secondary per-can panel from PepsiCo product facts (formula F0000007856, 12 fl oz: caffeine 0 mg, phosphorus 30 mg), marked unconfirmed for this UPC. Family family/diet-pepsi, brand brand/pepsi, category 10000201. No stubs created (all existed). No images (none licensed available). Validate: ok, no index gaps.. Current is v2.

9999| | identity | disputed | The current GDSN record describes a single 12 fl oz aluminium can, while the 2007 Barcodepedia entry (data credited to Amazon.com) described a 6 × 12 fl oz carton of 72 fl oz; no retailer page printing this UPC was found and PepsiCo SmartLabel has no page for it (smartlabel.pepsico.info/012000004940-0001 to -0005-en-US answered HTTP 404 on 2026-09-13), so the configuration the number identifies today is unconfirmed. | ^oldbp |

128128## About <!--about-->
129129Caffeine Free Diet Pepsi in a 12 fl oz can is PepsiCo's sugar-free, caffeine-free cola as recorded for the United States by USDA Branded Foods under this UPC, with Pepsico Inc. named as brand owner and the article described as a single 12 fluid ounce aluminium can.[^usda] That label statement sweetens it with sucralose and acesulfame potassium.[^usda] PepsiCo's product facts page for the 12 fl oz can of this formula gives 0 mg caffeine per can.[^ppf12] Diet Pepsi, the line it belongs to, was test marketed as Patio in 1963 and became the first diet cola distributed nationally in the United States; Caffeine-Free Diet Pepsi, introduced in 1982, was its first variant.[^wikidietpepsi]
130130 
131131The 2006-2013 Barcodepedia entry for this barcode, with data credited to Amazon.com, described it in 2007 as a 6-pack of 12 fl oz cans (72 fl oz), so which configuration the number identifies today is unresolved.[^oldbp] Wikipedia reports that PepsiCo returned Diet Pepsi to aspartame in 2018, so cans on the shelf may differ from the USDA statement.[^wikidietpepsi]

## About <!--about-->
Caffeine Free Diet Pepsi in a 12 fl oz can is PepsiCo's sugar-free, caffeine-free cola as recorded for the United States by USDA Branded Foods under this UPC, with Pepsico Inc. named as brand owner and the article described as a single 12 fluid ounce aluminium can.[^usda] That label statement sweetens it with sucralose and acesulfame potassium.[^usda] PepsiCo's product facts page for the 12 fl oz can of this formula gives 0 mg caffeine per can.[^ppf12] Diet Pepsi, the line it belongs to, was test marketed as Patio in 1963 and became the first diet cola distributed nationally in the United States; Caffeine-Free Diet Pepsi, introduced in 1982, was its first variant.[^wikidietpepsi]

The 2006-2013 Barcodepedia entry for this barcode, with data credited to Amazon.com, described it in 2007 as a 6-pack of 12 fl oz cans (72 fl oz), so which configuration the number identifies today is unresolved.[^oldbp] Wikipedia reports that PepsiCo returned Diet Pepsi to aspartame in 2018, so cans on the shelf may differ from the USDA statement.[^wikidietpepsi]
