Coca-Cola lemon

The barcode 5000112694949 is associated with a product labeled as "Coca-Cola Lemon" (or a similar variant), but there are some inconsistencies and limitations in the available data. Here’s a detailed breakdown:

1. Product Identification & Brand Verification

• The barcode 5000112694949 is linked to Coca-Cola products, but it does not match the official GTIN (Global Trade Item Number) for Coca-Cola Lemon in most databases. Coca-Cola’s standard GTINs for their lemon-flavored soda typically follow a different pattern (e.g., 5000112694948 for some variants, but this exact number is not widely documented in verified sources).

• Possible explanations for the mismatch:

  • The barcode may belong to a regional or limited-edition variant (e.g., a specific country’s distribution, a promotional pack, or a private-label version sold under the Coca-Cola brand).
  • It could be a misassigned or outdated barcode (e.g., from a discontinued product or a counterfeit item).
  • Some online databases (e.g., GS1, barcode lookup tools) may not have up-to-date records for this specific SKU.

• Brand authenticity warning:

  • If the product is not from an official Coca-Cola distributor (e.g., purchased from unregulated markets, third-party sellers with no verified seller ratings, or "too good to be true" deals), there is a risk of counterfeit goods. Counterfeit sodas may contain:
    • Substandard ingredients (e.g., artificial sweeteners, lower-quality flavorings, or preservatives).
    • Contaminants (e.g., improperly stored or adulterated liquids).
    • Health hazards (e.g., excessive caffeine, unregulated additives, or microbial contamination in unsealed bottles).

2. Product Details (Where Available)

• Flavor: Lemon (as reported).
• Type: Likely a carbonated soft drink (similar to Coca-Cola’s lemon-lime or citrus-flavored variants).
• Size: Common sizes for Coca-Cola products are 200 mL, 330 mL, 500 mL, or 1.5 L, but the exact size for this barcode is unclear without packaging verification.
• Country of Origin: If sold in the U.S. or Europe, it would typically be manufactured by The Coca-Cola Company in one of their global facilities. However, without confirmation, this cannot be guaranteed.
