    Idk, I think it would have just gotten the highway squeaky clean. All that foaming action.

        I think the popular idea is that Mentos reacts with Diet Coke, not regular Coke, but apparently people mainly use diet because it doesn’t leave as much of a sticky mess afterwards.

        I assume they meant diet coke as it’s known to be more reactive than regular coke.

          According to Steve Spangler, he used Diet Coke not because it’s more reactive, but because it didn’t contain sugar , and thus made cleanup much easier than with regular coke.

          Found it, and I was slightly mistaken:

          Why should you use diet soda? The simple answer is that it just works better than regular soda. Some people speculate that it has something to do with artificial sweeteners. More importantly, diet soda does not leave a sticky mess to have to clean up. Hey, that’s important for your clean up! [Source]

            I’d guess that it’s because the diet stuff doesn’t have as much corn syrup which would inhibit the foaming
