Caffeine in Soda
« on: October 12, 2007, 06:23:50 PM »
This was originally covered by Bethany Halford in C&EN. But there is a paper in The Journal of Food Science (J. Food Sci. 2007, 72, C337) that lists caffeine content in all the major/minor soda manufacturers. A table of their data is shown below for your viewing pleasure. Go Vault Zero!

Article DOI: 10.1111/j.1750-3841.2007.00414.x

Who would have thought... Pepsi kicks Coke's butt? I was under the impression that products like "Coke Zero" would have no caffeine. I think we should take on projects that require the consumption of soda.

Coke Zero, I think has 0 calories or something to that effect.
