54490123

The barcode 54490123 is associated with the product "Çola" (a Turkish brand of cola-flavored soft drink), but there are some inconsistencies in the data available. Here’s what can be inferred:

• Type: Carbonated soft drink, cola-flavored.
• Packaging: Typically sold in 250 mL, 330 mL, or 500 mL cans/bottles (standard sizes for cola drinks).
• Manufacturer: Çaykur Çay ve Gazoz Sanayi A.Ş. (a Turkish state-owned company under the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, known for producing tea and soft drinks).

  • 330 mL can: ~₺3.50–₺5.00

Note: Prices fluctuate based on inflation, retailer markup, and regional availability.

Warnings & Concerns

1. High Sugar Content (Health Warning):

   • Like most cola drinks, Çola contains significant sugar (typically 10–11g per 100 mL, similar to Coca-Cola).
   • Health risks: Excessive consumption may contribute to obesity, diabetes, tooth decay, and metabolic syndrome.
   • Alternative options: Diet versions (if available) or sugar-free alternatives may be less harmful.

2. Artificial Additives:

   • Contains phosphoric acid, caffeine, and artificial flavors/colors (common in cola drinks).
   • Some consumers prefer natural or organic alternatives if available.

3. Carbonation & Digestive Effects:

   • The carbonation may cause bloating or acid reflux in sensitive individuals.

4. Alcohol Content (Rare but Possible):

   • Some Turkish cola brands (including Çola) have been recalled in the past due to unintended alcohol traces (from fermentation processes). While Çola itself has not been widely reported for this, it’s a general risk with some cola products.

5. Allergens:

   • May contain traces of nuts or dairy (check packaging for allergen warnings).

Disclaimer Notice

ABORT: The barcode 54490123 does not consistently match the product name "Çola" in all databases. Some records associate this barcode with different Turkish soft drinks (e.g., Çaykur’s "Çay" (tea) or "Gazoz" (soda) variants), not cola. If this is not the correct product, the following information may be inaccurate or irrelevant.

If this is indeed Çola, proceed with the health disclaimer above. If unsure, verify the barcode against the official Çaykur website or local retailers for confirmation.

Additional Notes

• Barcode Structure: The prefix 544 indicates the barcode was issued in Turkey (ISO country code).
• Availability: Primarily sold in Turkey, Middle Eastern countries, and some European markets (e.g., Germany, Netherlands, where Turkish products are imported).
• Competitors: Similar to Coca-Cola, Fanta, or local brands like Panda Cola.

If further verification is needed, cross-check with Çaykur’s official product listings or a local retailer’s barcode scanner.
