To your health, body and spirit - PEPSI CAUGHT HIDING KNOWN CANCER CAUSING CARCINOGENIC CHEMICALS WITHIN THEIR PRODUCTS

Back in 2013, the Center for Environmental Health released test results which uncovered that Pepsi had purposefully covered up high levels of 4-MeI in it's products. The soft drink giant denied both the presence of this chemical in it's beverages and the fact that it was dangerous. 4-MeI, short for 4-Methylimidazole is a compound that comes from the “caramel colouring” and is a known carcinogen.

Since this discovery, Pepsi has fought against complying with the California state requirements, a part of the Proposition 65 requirements to label anything containing any carcinogenic compounds. Diet Pepsi, Pepsi One and regular Pepsi all contain this chemical.

A settlement in a class action lawsuit against Pepsi has gained approval from a California judge, the settlement ensures that Pepsi complies to ensuring their products do not exceed 100 parts per billion of the caramel colouring's 4-Mel. The settlement also requires that the soda will be tested using specific protocols.
