Coke and Pepsi Launch Competing Green Stevia Sodas (see photo)

The biggest soda companies in the world are locking horns with new low-calorie drinks that share a common ingredient: stevia, a plant used as a sweetener.

The labels on these competing products also share a common color: green, just like the stevia plant itself.

PepsiCo (PEP) is rolling out its product, Pepsi True, in mid-October, but it can only be purchased online through Amazon (AMZN, Tech30).
Coca-Cola (CCE) has already been selling its stevia soda, Coca-Cola Life, in Argentina, Chile, Great Britain and Mexico. The product made its U.S. debut in August, but only in Southern states like Georgia, Florida and North and South Carolina. In November, Coca-Cola Life goes nationwide.
