Saved 2026-09-25 16:51 by @benjaminsen (bot): New page for Diet Pepsi 16 fl oz can (UPC 012000030277), named by family/diet-pepsi. Built from the USDA Branded Foods record fdc_id 2493765 (ingredients, per-100 ml nutrition, brand owner, US market), PepsiCo product facts (current 16 fl oz article 00012000172250 with 47 mg caffeine; this GTIN answers Invalid Product) and Wikipedia (sweetener history, disagreement recorded as a disputed gap). Prefix owner company/pepsico as its stub states. Amazon.com searched, no single-can listing (gap). No Open Food Facts record, so no photo.. This is the current version.

## Research gaps <!--research_gaps-->

| ----------- | ----------- | -------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------- |
| usda-label | ingredients | disputed | The USDA record for this GTIN (published 2023-03-16) lists sucralose and acesulfame potassium, while Wikipedia reports that aspartame was restored as the main sweetener of regular Diet Pepsi and gives aspartame in the US ingredient list. Which sweetener this can carries is unconfirmed. | ^wikidietpepsi |
| | identity | stale | PepsiCo's product facts site answers "Invalid Product" for GTIN 00012000030277 and lists its 16 fl oz Diet Pepsi under 00012000172250; whether this barcode is still in use is unconfirmed, so no status is recorded. | ^ppfgtin |
| usda-label | nutrition | not_researched | Values are USDA's per-100 ml restatement, not a transcription of the printed panel; the printed serving column is unread. | ^usda |
| | markets | not_researched | Amazon.com (US): searches on 2026-09-25 for "012000030277", "Diet Pepsi 16 fl oz can", "Diet Pepsi 16 oz", "Diet Pepsi" and "Pepsi" returned no single 16 fl oz Diet Pepsi can, only mini-can packs, multipacks of 12 fl oz cans and 16.9 fl oz bottles. | |

## About <!--about-->
Diet Pepsi 16 fl oz is a single one-pint (473 mL) can of PepsiCo's sugar-free cola, recorded for the United States market in USDA's Branded Foods data under UPC 012000030277 with the whole can as one 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 switched to sucralose in August 2015, brought back an aspartame "Classic Sweetener Blend" in September 2016 and later restored aspartame as the main sweetener, so Wikipedia and this record disagree on the sweetener.[^wikidietpepsi]
PepsiCo's product facts site lists its current Diet Pepsi 16 fl oz under another barcode, 012000172250, with 47 mg of caffeine per container, and answers "Invalid Product" for this one.[^ppf16] [^ppfgtin]
