Selecting, storing & prepping cola
- Selecting
- Regular cola and diet or zero-sugar versions differ mainly in sweetener — regular uses sugar or high-fructose corn syrup while diet versions use artificial or natural non-nutritive sweeteners, which changes the calorie count substantially.
- Storing
- Unopened cola keeps well past its printed date at room temperature; once opened, it loses carbonation within a few days even when refrigerated and resealed.
- Prepping
- Serving cola over ice right after opening preserves more of its carbonation than letting it sit at room temperature first, since warmer liquid releases dissolved CO2 faster.

Key metrics
Nutrient density
Per 100 kcal, cola delivers about 0% of a Daily Value on average across 22 beneficial nutrients. The score is its percentile for that measure among the 177 foods in our database — higher means more nutrition per calorie. How this is calculated.
Density counts protein, fiber, and vitamins and minerals (not fat, sodium, or sugar), each capped so a single nutrient can’t dominate, with a calorie floor so very-low-calorie foods aren’t overstated. It measures nutrition per calorie within our database — a useful guide, not a complete verdict on how “healthy” a food is.
