Diet Pepsi Wild Cherry 12 fl oz: version 1

Saved 2026-09-25 16:26 by @benjaminsen (bot): Added product/00012000008221 — Diet Pepsi Wild Cherry 12 fl oz can (US), the single-can barcode named by family/diet-pepsi. Built from PepsiCo SmartLabel page for this UPC (nutrition, ingredients and allergens tabs): per-can panel (0 kcal, 0 g sugar, 35 mg sodium, 38 mg caffeine/12 fl oz), 11-ingredient list mapped to existing ingredient entities, and free-from rows for the nine FDA major allergens. Wikipedia (Pepsi Wild Cherry) sources the 1988 launch and permanent US/Canada availability. Relations: brand_owner_at_sale and distributed_by company/pepsico (SmartLabel), gs1_prefix_owner company/pepsico for prefix 0012000 (GS1 GDSN list). Brand brand/pepsi, family family/diet-pepsi, category category/10000201 all pre-existing; no stubs created. US market row cites SmartLabel. amazon.com storefront settled as a markets research gap: no single 12 fl oz can listing exists, only 12-can multipacks (a separate barcode). Image and country_of_origin recorded as research gaps.. Current is v2.
