## About <!--about-->
Diet Pepsi in a pack of twenty-four 12 fl oz (355 ml) cans is a United States multipack of PepsiCo's sugar-free cola, recorded by USDA Branded Foods under this UPC with Pepsi-Cola North America Inc. as brand owner, a 288 fl oz (8.52 L) package and one can as the serving.[^usda] The label statement USDA has held since 2019 sweetens it with sucralose and acesulfame potassium and names no aspartame.[^usda] PepsiCo's product facts page for Diet Pepsi in the 12 fl oz size gives 35 mg caffeine and 30 mg phosphorus per serving.[^ppf12] Diet Pepsi was test marketed as Patio in 1963 and launched nationally the following year, the first diet cola distributed across the United States.[^wikidietpepsi] A New York distributor sells a 24-can case of 12 oz Diet Pepsi.[^nybev]

Which sweetener the cans carry depends on when they were filled. Diet Pepsi moved from aspartame to sucralose in the United States in 2015 and returned to aspartame market-wide in February 2018; Wikipedia's current United States ingredient list names aspartame and acesulfame potassium.[^wikidietpepsi] The statement stored against this barcode is therefore a label from the sucralose period.[^usda] Amazon's current 24-can listing names aspartame and prints two other UPCs.[^amz]
