Common questions

Is Pepsi Cola Soda healthy?

Pepsi Cola Soda scores 24/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

What is in Pepsi Cola Soda?

Pepsi Cola Soda lists 3 ingredients, starting with High Fructose Corn Syrup, Phosphoric Acid and Citric Acid. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.
