- British label, Coke Original Taste sweetened with sugar supported · Compare evidence
Read from two uploads of the same English label: the ingredient panel photographed 2022-02-04, which also shows the MADE IN GB mark and the OPRL "CAP ON / Recycle" label, and the whole-bottle photograph of 2025-10-27 carrying the panel, the barcode 5449 1472 and "©2023 The Coca-Cola Company"
- Croatian label, sweetened with fructose-glucose syrup supported · Compare evidence
One upload of 2021-09-08 shows the whole Croatian back: the denomination, the ingredient list, the operator block, the panel and "© 2021 The Coca-Cola Company"; a front photograph of the same pack carries the best-before date 22/01/2022
- Ukrainian and Romanian bilingual label made in Romania supported · Compare evidence
Headed "Coke ОРИГІНАЛЬНИЙ СМАК / GUST ORIGINAL"; the panel is headed in both languages and the back names Romania as the country of origin and the Ukrainian importer. Only the Ukrainian text carries a country badge, so Romania is recorded as origin and not as a market
- Spanish label, Sabor Original supported · Compare evidence
A whole-bottle photograph of 2025-07-29 showing the front only: "Coca-Cola Sabor Original" over "Deliciosa y Refrescante", with a front-of-pack energy flash. No ingredient list, panel or operator block is in frame, so none is transcribed from it
- French label with a promotional flash unconfirmed · Compare evidence
A French 500 ml bottle photographed on 2026-04-23 reading "GAGNE UN AN DE DÎNERS DU DIMANCHE GRATUITS" beside a colour-coded reference-intake panel. The shot is a whole bottle on a table, so nothing on it is legible enough to transcribe and France is not claimed as a market

About this product
Coca-Cola Original Taste in the 500 ml PET bottle, the article behind the eight-digit barcode 54491472 printed beside the panel on every label read for this page.[4] A GTIN-8 carries no company prefix, because GS1 allocates these short numbers one at a time, so the code names no licensee. The Coca-Cola Company signs each label as trademark owner,[4] and the bottle is filled and sold for national markets under its authorisation: two British wholesalers list the article under this barcode,[1][5] and a Tenerife hypermarket sells it as Refresco Original Coca Cola 500 ml.[3] Open Food Facts holds about 120 uploads against the number,[6] and the old Barcodepedia catalogued it in 2008 as a 500 ml plastic bottle at 95p.[7]
One barcode, several labels. The British pack calls itself Coke Original Taste, a "Sparkling Soft Drink with Plant Extracts" made from carbonated water, sugar, caramel colour E150d, phosphoric acid and natural flavourings including caffeine, and prints 180 kJ / 42 kcal and 10.6 g of sugars per 100 ml with a MADE IN GB mark.[4] The Croatian pack of 2021 is sweetened with fructose-glucose syrup instead and prints 190 kJ / 45 kcal and 11.2 g of sugars, an eight per cent heavier drink under the same number, with Coca-Cola HBC Hrvatska d.o.o. of Zagreb as operator and the Croatian deposit mark.[4] The Ukrainian and Romanian pack of 2026 returns to sugar and to the British figures, gives its country of origin as Romania, and names Coca-Cola Beverages Ukraine as importer and distributor.[4] Spanish and French labels are photographed too, but only as whole-bottle shots.
Both sweetenings are kept as their own observation with the date of the photograph that carries them, rather than ordered as a single change: nothing read gives a date on which either recipe started or stopped. Countries are recorded only where a mark, an operator address or a listing printing the barcode supports them, which is why the twenty countries Open Food Facts tags for this record are not adopted.[6] Wikidata attaches the same EAN-8 to its general Coca-Cola item rather than to this bottle.[8] The Croatian operator is the one company named here that had no page: the Global LEI index records it as COCA-COLA HBC HRVATSKA d.o.o. of Sachsova ulica 1, Zagreb.[9]

- British label, Coke Original Taste sweetened with sugar: nutrient evidence: 13 / 13 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist

- Ukrainian and Romanian bilingual label made in Romania: nutrient evidence: 16 / 16 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist
- identity · not_applicable: The barcode is a GTIN-8, which GS1 allocates number by number, so there is no company prefix and no gs1_prefix_owner can be recorded. The archived 2008 page's line "Produced in Belgium or Luxembourg by Coca-Cola Company" was generated from the 544 range and is not evidence
- relationships · unknown: Both photographs of the British label are crops that stop before the operator block, so the British food business operator is not recorded here; no fetched source names the operator for this barcode
- relationships · unknown: The Ukrainian label gives the country of origin as Romania but names no Romanian producer, only the Ukrainian importer. Naming a Romanian group company on that basis alone would be a guess, so no manufactured_by row was written
- nutrition · unknown: The Spanish label's panel and ingredient list were never photographed; the only Spanish upload is a whole-bottle front shot whose front-of-pack energy flash is too small to transcribe figure by figure
- markets · unknown: A French label of this bottle is photographed, but a French-language label alone is not market evidence and no French listing printing this barcode was found, so France is not in country_of_sale
- markets · disputed: Open Food Facts tags twenty countries for this barcode, including Ethiopia, Morocco, Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan. Those are contributor claims; only the four countries with a printed mark, a printed operator or a listing that prints the barcode are recorded here
- markets · unknown: Searched for an Amazon listing of this barcode on amazon.co.uk and amazon.es on 2026-09-17, by barcode and by name: no listing of this 500 ml bottle was found on either storefront
- ingredients · unknown: The typed Open Food Facts ingredient statement follows the fructose-glucose-syrup recipe while the record's own countries span the whole of Europe; it is kept out of the rows here because each row set is transcribed from one photographed label instead
- markets · unknown: Searched amazon.de on 2026-09-17 for "Coca-Cola Original Taste 500 ml PET bottle", the brand alone ("coca cola"), and 000054491472; plus "Coca-Cola Sparkling Soft Drink 500 ml" and a price-ascending pass: no listing of this article; Only multipacks of this bottle.
