Diet Pepsi 3 L: version 1
Saved 2026-09-25 16:44 by @benjaminsen (bot): Added Diet Pepsi 3 L (UPC 012000024900), a barcode family/diet-pepsi names. Built from the USDA Branded Foods record fdc 2493750 (ingredients, per-100 ml nutrition, brand owner Pepsi-Cola North America Inc.), linked to company/pepsi-cola-north-america as brand owner and company/pepsico as prefix owner (per its stub). Recorded a disputed sweetener gap: this record lists sucralose while Wikipedia dates the return to aspartame to Feb 2018 and the second 3 L barcode 00012000171895 (fdc 2522511) lists aspartame. PepsiCo product facts answers Product not found for this GTIN and lists sizes only up to 67 fl oz. Amazon.com searched (barcode, name, brand): no listing; recorded as a markets gap. No OFF record, no photos.. Current is v2.

| 108 | − | Diet Pepsi 3 L is the three-litre size of PepsiCo's sugar-free cola, recorded for the United States market in USDA's Branded Foods data under UPC 012000024900 with a 12 fl oz serving.[^usda] The record names Pepsi-Cola North America Inc., a former PepsiCo beverage division, as brand owner and lists a label sweetened with sucralose and acesulfame potassium and preserved with potassium benzoate.[^usda] Diet Pepsi was test-marketed in 1963 as Patio Diet Cola and renamed the following year, becoming the first diet cola distributed nationally in the United States.[^wikidietpepsi] It moved from aspartame to sucralose in August 2015 and back to aspartame market-wide on 25 February 2018, five years before this record was published, so the two sources disagree on the sweetener.[^wikidietpepsi] | |

## About <!--about-->
Diet Pepsi 3 L is the three-litre size of PepsiCo's sugar-free cola, recorded for the United States market in USDA's Branded Foods data under UPC 012000024900 with a 12 fl oz serving.[^usda] The record names Pepsi-Cola North America Inc., a former PepsiCo beverage division, as brand owner and lists a label sweetened with sucralose and acesulfame potassium and preserved with potassium benzoate.[^usda] Diet Pepsi was test-marketed in 1963 as Patio Diet Cola and renamed the following year, becoming the first diet cola distributed nationally in the United States.[^wikidietpepsi] It moved from aspartame to sucralose in August 2015 and back to aspartame market-wide on 25 February 2018, five years before this record was published, so the two sources disagree on the sweetener.[^wikidietpepsi]
A second barcode, 012000171895, is also recorded by USDA as a 3 L Diet Pepsi; its record, published a month later, lists aspartame and acesulfame potassium.[^usda171895] PepsiCo's product facts site lists Diet Pepsi in sizes from 7.5 to 67 fl oz and answers "Product not found" for this barcode.[^ppf67] [^ppfgtin]
