The 12 fl oz Diet can's 2018 statement (product/00012000003356) lacks sucralose, potassium sorbate and caramel color, so the recipe may have changed at the rename; not established here. | ^offfront |

147147## About <!--about-->
148148Mountain Dew Code Red Zero Sugar is the sugar-free version of PepsiCo's cherry-flavoured Mountain Dew extension, and this barcode is its 20 fl oz single-serve bottle for the United States.[^ppf] PepsiCo sold the same UPC as Diet Mountain Dew Code Red until 2022, when the diet line was renamed: the Diet SmartLabel pages for this barcode were retired and a Zero Sugar revision issued on 24 May 2022.[^sl12][^sl13][^wikicr] The 2022 back label sweetens it with aspartame, acesulfame potassium and sucralose, carries a phenylalanine warning and reads "Bottled under the authority of PepsiCo".[^offnutr] PepsiCo states 113 mg of caffeine per bottle.[^ppf]
149149 
150150Code Red reached United States stores in May 2001 as the brand's first large-scale move beyond its flagship citrus flavour; the diet version followed in 2002.[^wikicr] The 2006-2013 Barcodepedia listed this UPC in 2007 as "Mountain Dew Code Red - Diet, 20 fl oz".[^oldbp] United States grocery sites still list the Zero Sugar bottle.[^deca][^ingles]

## About <!--about-->
Mountain Dew Code Red Zero Sugar is the sugar-free version of PepsiCo's cherry-flavoured Mountain Dew extension, and this barcode is its 20 fl oz single-serve bottle for the United States.[^ppf] PepsiCo sold the same UPC as Diet Mountain Dew Code Red until 2022, when the diet line was renamed: the Diet SmartLabel pages for this barcode were retired and a Zero Sugar revision issued on 24 May 2022.[^sl12][^sl13][^wikicr] The 2022 back label sweetens it with aspartame, acesulfame potassium and sucralose, carries a phenylalanine warning and reads "Bottled under the authority of PepsiCo".[^offnutr] PepsiCo states 113 mg of caffeine per bottle.[^ppf]

Code Red reached United States stores in May 2001 as the brand's first large-scale move beyond its flagship citrus flavour; the diet version followed in 2002.[^wikicr] The 2006-2013 Barcodepedia listed this UPC in 2007 as "Mountain Dew Code Red - Diet, 20 fl oz".[^oldbp] United States grocery sites still list the Zero Sugar bottle.[^deca][^ingles]
