GuyBeardmane Posted November 23, 2019 Author Share Posted November 23, 2019 But wouldn't you think the caffeine in a bottle of Mountain Dew is greater than the caffeine in a bottle of Pepsi? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Certain ingredients used in making caramel coloring can cause reactions if you have an allergy to them or have celiac disease or gluten intolerance. Some of these include milk, corn dextrose, corn or wheat starch, and malt syrup derived from barley. However, these ingredients aren't always indicated individually on the product labeling." 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a sensible science reason. I don't know if I have any allergies to caramel coloring, but it is the main difference between the sodas. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be that the combination of HFCS and something in the caramel coloring could be the issue. That is, you could be slightly fructose intolerant, and something in the caramel coloring pushes it over the edge. Good luck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
