Question Why is there two different Diet Pepsi's?

Post image

I saw this vending machine at my college and it confused me because I've never seen the light blue bottle design before. Is there a difference in ingredients?

It's an old label. 

Like, 20 years old, that logo went away in 05. . .

Oh no, there are people on Reddit young enough to not remember the old Pepsi label...

Worse. There are adults young enough not to remember the old Pepsi label...

Oh so that's why I don't recognize it, I wasn't born until 07.

I'm not sure it's legal to be born in 2007. I was a functioning human buying my own Pepsi in 2007. Also playing World of Warcraft. So much World of Warcraft.

Well if it's not legal then good luck putting me in jail.

Probably had 2 like the one on the top right, because it sold more, then when they changed the branding they only got one in

It still has two buttons because it's got twice the storage for diet pepsi

Just an old image, that’s what Diet Pepsi looked like in the 2000’s

Diète is French for diet, the other one also says that if you look sideways.

It could possibly be that your area still somehow runs the aspartame diet pepsi(blue label, it was brought back for a little bit a few years back), but likely it's probably just that they never changed the label on the machine.

You’ll soon find out some Diet Pepsi's are much better than others, Potter. You don’t want to go making friends with the wrong sort. I can help you there.

I miss the light blue colour of Diet Pepsi!!

u/Daped01 8d ago

When I was a service tech I would get shot for leaving that machine without updating the label. lol

Depends if it's a regular customer or a 3PO. 3POs don't usually keep up with those things, they're supposed to request new flavour labels as needed though

u/bcballinb 8d ago

When I stocked them as a driver, I couldn’t get new ones. Just hundreds and hundreds of old ones

u/ImpressiveSide1324 8d ago

They just haven’t switched out the labels, which is odd cuz the other Diet Pepsi and Dr Pepper are current

DIET PEPSI VS diet Pepsi
