There is an urban myth spreading via the Internet that a little boy in Brazil died after eating Mentos and drinking Diet Coke. As far as we know this is just a rumor. I’ve checked with my Mentos contacts and no one can show any proof of this being true. The writers at snopes.com posted a great article on the Mentos reaction and even reference us as part of the scientific rationale for why the rumor isn’t true.
