Red Bull Energy Drink (French label) 250 ml: version 1

Saved 2026-09-25 14:32 by @benjaminsen (bot): Added the French-labelled Red Bull Energy Drink 250 ml can (EAN 9002490205973), wanted by family/red-bull-energy-drink. Built from the Open Food Facts photographs of this barcode: three French label generations (2012 with glucuronolactone, inositol and sodium citrates; 2020 with redbull.fr; 2021/2023 with the niacin/B6 health claim), each with its ingredient list and transcribed per-100 ml panel. FR market from the printed Triman mark and three French listings printing the EAN (Asian Food Market EUR 1.50, La Famille à Table EUR 1.86, Miamland wholesale). Amazon.fr: eight listings opened, none prints this GTIN (recorded as a markets gap). Unconfirmed 2018 photo reading 21 mg caffeine/100 ml kept as a disputed observation. New stub: ingredient/glucuronolactone (Wikipedia). OFF uploads 2-6, 20, 21 show other products and were not used.. Current is v2.

211220## About <!--about-->
212221This is the French-labelled 250 ml can of Red Bull Energy Drink, the original Red Bull, under its own barcode, separate from the multi-country can 9002490100070.[^off] The label is in French only, prints the Triman sorting mark and names Red Bull GmbH of Fuschl am See, Austria, as the company behind it.[^off-img-19][^off-img-31] The current recipe is carbonated water, sucrose and glucose, citric acid, taurine at 0.4 %, sodium and magnesium carbonates, caffeine at 0.03 %, four B vitamins, flavourings and the colours plain caramel and riboflavin, with 32 mg of caffeine per 100 ml.[^off-img-31] Red Bull gives 80 mg of caffeine and 27 g of sugars for each can.[^redbull-fr] French shops list it at EUR 1.50 to 1.86.[^asianfoodmarket][^lafamilleatable]
213222 
214223France was one of the countries that at first refused to let Red Bull be sold: the French food safety agency objected to taurine, a taurine-free Red Bull was sold there instead, and the agency gave way in 2008.[^wikipedia-redbull] The oldest French label photographed for this barcode, from 2012, already contains taurine, along with glucuronolactone and inositol, which the 2020 and later lists no longer carry. It also uses sodium citrates where the later lists have sodium carbonates, and declares sodium rather than salt.[^off-img-10] In 2020 the can had a strapline and www.redbull.fr where by 2021 it carried the authorised claim that niacin and vitamin B6 help reduce tiredness.[^off-img-19][^off-img-23]

## About <!--about-->
This is the French-labelled 250 ml can of Red Bull Energy Drink, the original Red Bull, under its own barcode, separate from the multi-country can 9002490100070.[^off] The label is in French only, prints the Triman sorting mark and names Red Bull GmbH of Fuschl am See, Austria, as the company behind it.[^off-img-19][^off-img-31] The current recipe is carbonated water, sucrose and glucose, citric acid, taurine at 0.4 %, sodium and magnesium carbonates, caffeine at 0.03 %, four B vitamins, flavourings and the colours plain caramel and riboflavin, with 32 mg of caffeine per 100 ml.[^off-img-31] Red Bull gives 80 mg of caffeine and 27 g of sugars for each can.[^redbull-fr] French shops list it at EUR 1.50 to 1.86.[^asianfoodmarket][^lafamilleatable]

France was one of the countries that at first refused to let Red Bull be sold: the French food safety agency objected to taurine, a taurine-free Red Bull was sold there instead, and the agency gave way in 2008.[^wikipedia-redbull] The oldest French label photographed for this barcode, from 2012, already contains taurine, along with glucuronolactone and inositol, which the 2020 and later lists no longer carry. It also uses sodium citrates where the later lists have sodium carbonates, and declares sodium rather than salt.[^off-img-10] In 2020 the can had a strapline and www.redbull.fr where by 2021 it carried the authorised claim that niacin and vitamin B6 help reduce tiredness.[^off-img-19][^off-img-23]
