Brand: Pepsi

Munch or Dump rates Pepsi Cola 12-Pack (12 fl oz cans) by Pepsi DUMP — score 20/90.

Sugar water with a caffeine kick: 41 grams of sugar per can, sweetened twice over with high fructose corn syrup and sugar. Caramel color and phosphoric acid round out a formula with zero nutrition. At least it never pretends to be anything else.

Why this verdict

41g of sugar per 12 oz can — multiple sweeteners detected (high fructose corn syrup AND sugar), sweetness engineered, not simple
Caramel color carries the manufacturing byproduct 4-MeI, a real concern at daily-soda doses
Phosphoric acid softens tooth enamel and contributes nothing but tang
150 calories per can with zero protein, fiber, vitamins, or minerals — a 12-pack of them
Classic NOVA 4 ultra-processed formula: industrial sweeteners, color, and acidulants

Ingredients (8)

Carbonated Water (safe) — The base — the only part of the name that's fully honest.
High Fructose Corn Syrup (concerning) — A cheap sweetener linked to obesity and metabolic issues.
caramel color (caution) — Cosmetic coloring; some classes carry 4-MEI concerns.
Sugar (moderate) — Commonly used sweetener but contributes empty calories.
Phosphoric Acid (moderate) — Industrial acidulant standing in for the tang cultured buttermilk would provide.
Caffeine (moderate) — 54mg per can, more than most colas.
citric acid (safe) — Benign acidity regulator paired with the TBHQ.
Natural flavor (moderate) — Undisclosed flavoring; natural-sourced but still a lab-blended ingredient.
