About this product

Diet Pepsi Lemon 2 L is a lemon-flavoured version of Diet Pepsi, PepsiCo's sugar-free cola, in a two-litre size for the United States market.[1] USDA Branded Foods records it under this UPC as "Lemon Diet Cola", with Pepsi-Cola North America Inc. as brand owner, a 2 L package and an 8 fl oz serving.[1] The label statement USDA captured in 2023 sweetens it with aspartame and lists natural flavour, citric acid, potassium citrate, caffeine and calcium disodium EDTA alongside the usual cola ingredients.[1] Lemon is one of several flavours, with wild cherry, vanilla and lime, that PepsiCo has added to Diet Pepsi over the years.[2]

Diet Pepsi was launched nationally in the United States in 1964 as the first diet cola distributed across the country.[2] PepsiCo's product facts site does not recognise this barcode.[3]

Coverage & research gaps (7)

Coverage measures the evidence recorded here. It does not rate the product.

  • Identity: 3 / 3 · Name, brand and classification recorded
  • Context: 1 / 1 · Evidence groups assigned to a researched label, edition or analysis
  • Label photographs: 0 / 1 · Researched contexts with an assigned photograph
  • United States label as recorded by USDA Branded Foods: nutrient evidence: 7 / 7 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist
  • identity · stale: PepsiCo's product facts site answers Invalid Product for this GTIN and no SmartLabel page exists for it, so whether the 2 L lemon article is still shipped is unconfirmed; no status is recorded.
  • markets · unknown: Searched amazon.com on 2026-09-25 for "Diet Pepsi Lemon 2 L", "diet pepsi lemon", "pepsi" and "012000028595": no listing of this article (lemon searches returned only other Diet Pepsi and Diet Mountain Dew articles; the barcode search returned nothing).
  • markets · not_researched: DoorDash lists a "Diet Pepsi NFL Kickoff Lemon Soda Bottle (2 L)", but the page refused the fetch (HTTP 403) on 2026-09-25, so its barcode and price were not read and it is not cited.
  • nutrition · not_researched: Values are USDA's per-100 ml restatement, not a transcription of the printed panel; the printed per-serving column and caffeine content are unread.
  • images · not_researched: No photograph of this pack: Open Food Facts has no record for this barcode and no 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.
