How many calories are in a 355 ml can of Pepsi Cola?
Answer
150
The story behind the answer
A 355 ml (12 fl oz) can of Pepsi Cola has 150 calories. That total comes almost entirely from its sugar—about 41 g of carbohydrates—since soda has virtually no fat or protein. Carbs provide ~4 calories per gram, placing a can of Pepsi in the ~150-calorie range (labels round).
Remember it this way: a standard can of regular cola is about 150 calories—roughly 10–12 calories per ounce. That’s around 8–10 teaspoons of sugar in one can, approaching recommended daily limits for added sugar. If you picture “a can = 150,” you can quickly estimate calories for most regular sodas.
