Diet Pepsi 24 x 16.9 fl oz: version 1
Saved 2026-09-25 21:34 by @benjaminsen (bot): Added Diet Pepsi 24 x 16.9 fl oz bottles, UPC 012000014086, from the wanted list (named by family/diet-pepsi). Identity, ingredients and per-100 ml nutrition come from USDA Branded Foods record 2493713 (brand owner Pepsi-Cola North America Inc.), and the Open Food Facts record for the barcode agrees. Per-bottle caffeine and phosphorus come from PepsiCo product facts for the 16.9 fl oz bottle. The recorded label uses sucralose and acesulfame potassium, the 2015-2018 recipe (Wikipedia, Food Dive). PepsiCo current SmartLabel for the same pack size prints another UPC, 012000173622, with aspartame; that is recorded as a disputed identity and ingredients gap. GS1 prefix owner company/pepsico per its stub. Amazon.com recorded as searched with no 24-pack listing; no licensed photo exists.. This is the current version.

| | identity | disputed | PepsiCo's current SmartLabel page for a Diet Pepsi 24 x 16.9 fl oz (500 mL) bottle pack, total 405.6 fl oz (12 L), prints UPC 012000173622 and lists aspartame, and USDA holds a record for that barcode too (fdc_id 2657902, 2023-10-26). SmartLabel answers 404 for 012000014086 on revisions 0000 to 0010 and PepsiCo's product-facts site answers "Product not found" for this GTIN, so whether 012000014086 is an earlier code for the same pack is open. | ^sl173622 |
| usda-label | ingredients | disputed | The sucralose and acesulfame potassium statement stored against this barcode matches the recipe PepsiCo sold from August 2015 until aspartame was restored market-wide on 25 February 2018, while the current SmartLabel statement for the 24-pack under 012000173622 lists aspartame. No photograph or dated label for this barcode exists, so which statement its bottles print is unconfirmed. | ^wikidietpepsi |

## About <!--about-->
Diet Pepsi 24 x 16.9 fl oz is a United States multipack of PepsiCo's sugar-free cola, recorded by USDA Branded Foods under this UPC as twenty-four 500 ml bottles, 405.6 fl oz or 12 L in total, with Pepsi-Cola North America Inc. as brand owner.[^usda] The label statement USDA holds lists carbonated water, caramel color, phosphoric acid, potassium benzoate, sucralose, acesulfame potassium, caffeine, natural flavor and citric acid, with 0 calories and 10 mg sodium per 100 ml.[^usda] Open Food Facts carries the same statement and owner for the barcode.[^off] PepsiCo's product-facts page for Diet Pepsi in the 16.9 fl oz bottle gives 50 mg caffeine per bottle.[^ppf169]
Diet Pepsi moved from aspartame to sucralose in the United States in August 2015 and returned to aspartame market-wide on 25 February 2018,[^wikidietpepsi] with the aspartame-free version kept on sale only through e-commerce.[^fd2018] The sucralose statement stored against this barcode therefore reads as a label from that period, even though USDA ingested it in 2023.[^usda] PepsiCo's current SmartLabel page for a 24 x 16.9 fl oz (500 mL) Diet Pepsi pack prints a different UPC, 012000173622, and lists aspartame.[^sl173622]
