| ae-2018 | nutrition | unknown | No nutrition panel is photographed. Open Food Facts carries typed per-100 ml figures (47 kcal, 204 kJ, 12 g carbohydrate, 12 g sugars, 0.01 g salt) with no nutrition photo behind them; the kJ and kcal disagree, so they are not transcribed here. | ^off |
| ae-2018 | ingredients | unknown | The footnote that the two asterisks after tartrazine point to, and the text after "MADE IN UAE", run off the bottom edge of the ingredient photograph. | ^offimg2 |
| ae-2018 | relationships | unknown | The bottler's name is not in either photograph, so no bottled_by relation is recorded. | ^offimg2 |
| ae-2018 | identity | unknown | Neither photograph shows the net content; 500 ml is the size in the Panda.qa listing that prints this barcode. | ^panda |
| | markets | not_researched | Amazon.ae searched on 2026-09-25 for "mountain dew 500ml", "mountain dew", "mountain dew 500ml bottle" and "012000803857": the results show Mountain Dew cans, multipacks and 1.25 l and 2.28 l bottles but no single 500 ml bottle, and the 1.25 l listing has no size selector. Qatar has no Amazon storefront of its own. | ^amzae |
| | markets | disputed | Open Food Facts countries_tags gives France, which reflects where the contributor added the record; the pack carries an English and Arabic label and no French text. | ^off |
