About this product
Mug Root Beer in the 12 fl oz (355 mL) can is the single-serve can of PepsiCo's root beer in the United States, one can per container, distributed by PepsiCo, Inc. of Purchase, New York.[1] PepsiCo lists it with no caffeine.[2] Its label statement declares carbonated water, high fructose corn syrup, caramel color, sodium benzoate, citric acid, natural and artificial flavors, modified food starch, calcium disodium EDTA and quillaia extract, and one can gives 160 calories and 43 g of sugars.[3][4] Multipacks carry their own barcode: PepsiCo sells the 24-can case of two 12-packs under UPC 012000810008.[5] The old Barcodepedia page of 2007 described this code as a six-pack of cans.[6]
More about this product
The drink began in San Francisco in 1940 as Belfast Root Beer, became Belfast Old Fashioned Mug Root Beer during the 1950s and was then shortened to Mug Root Beer. PepsiCo bought the brand in 1986, replacing its own On-Tap Draft Style Root Beer, and the label has since carried a bulldog named Dog holding a glass of root beer.[7]

Coverage measures the evidence recorded here. It does not rate the product.
- Identity: 3 / 3 · Name, brand and classification recorded
- Context: 2 / 2 · Evidence groups assigned to a researched label, edition or analysis
- Label photographs: 0 / 2 · Researched contexts with an assigned photograph
- US can label, 2012 to 2017 records: nutrient evidence: 13 / 13 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist
- PepsiCo product-facts page, current: nutrient evidence: 2 / 2 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist
- identity · disputed: The archived 2007 Barcodepedia page, copied from Amazon, called this code a six-pack of 12 fl oz cans (72 fl oz), and a ShopRite product URL still files it under 72 fl oz. PepsiCo's SmartLabel and product-facts pages, USDA and Oklahoma's SNAP list all give it as one 12 fl oz can, 1 per container, and PepsiCo sells the 2/12-pack case under its own UPC 012000810008. The can barcode is probably scanned through multipacks at some stores; this page follows the maker. ShopRite answered 403 to server-side retrieval.
- ingredients · unknown: The current ingredient statement for the can was not obtained: SmartLabel (updated 2023-09-07) and PepsiCo's product-facts page draw it in JavaScript. The 2-litre bottle's current retail statement no longer lists modified food starch, so the can's label may have changed since 2017.
- nutrition · not_researched: The current printed Nutrition Facts column (added sugars, %DV under the 2016 FDA format) was not retrieved; the per-can figures come from the 2012 fact sheet.
- identity · unknown: No source states a country of origin for this can, so none is recorded.
- markets · not_researched: No dated retail price: ShopRite, Walmart and Lowes Foods refused server-side retrieval.
- images · unknown: Open Food Facts holds no photograph of this can and no freely licensed picture was found.
- evidence · stale: Evidence was observed over a year ago; check for newer labels. Historical evidence remains valid.
- images · not_researched: No product photographs recorded.
- ingredients · not_researched: Ingredient statement or sourced exemption not recorded.
