Eric, I don’t know the details, but I know it’s the reaction of the gum arabic in the candy.

Yeah, the surface of the candy acts as a catalyst, it has millions of tiny pits in which gas bubbles can form. Aspartame has a bad effect on the stability of the carbon dioxide-water solution, making diet Coke more liable to release all its gas at once than regular Coke.

It would have been much cooler if it were a mentos-diet coke mixing flash mob.
