FOOD/BEVERAGES: Pepsi plans new products
Pepsico is reportedly planning a trio of new products next year.
Pepsi One, which was introduced in 1998 using a blend of sweeteners ace-K
and aspartame, will be reformulated with sucralose next year, Beverage
Digest said, citing bottlers and unidentified sources.
Sucralose is marketed by Johnson & Johnson's McNeil Nutritionals unit as
Splenda.
"Sucralose has become very popular with consumers, and having a diet cola
sweetened with that sweetener could prove to have a great deal of consumer
appeal," said Beverage Digest Editor John Sicher.
Pepsi also is planning to introduce a sparkling Aquafina and a no-calorie or
low-calorie flavored water, possibly called Splash, according to the
industry publication.
