Even mainstream soda companies are trying to get into the act. I bought a Diet Pepsi prebiotic soda.It is a cherry vanilla flavor and has only 30 calories per can. Not sure what the active ingredient is in it, but probably something similar to Poppi. Not sure enough people will be buying this to keep it permanently in stock, but it is interesting

Is it as expensive as Poppi? Poppi is over $2 per can. Ridiculous.

I don't drink it quite as much as I used to. Besides being bad for you, it has gotten quite expensive.

Same as Jim, I am so tired to see everything labeled as "healthy". It's only marketing!

Only 30 calories is good. I haven't drunk soda for years.

A lot of people here are invested in kicking their soda habit, or at least cutting down.

@snowy22315 There is just so much sugar in most of these types of drinks.

The problem is we do not know how healthy the soda is. Almost every other food company is trying this

Well at 30 calories a can, and no artificial sweetness, it is a step in the right direction.
