On June 30, 1998, the artificial sweetener acesulfame potassium was approved for use by the Food and Drug Administration. PepsiCo responded within one hour, announcing the introduction of Pepsi ONE (which reached store shelves the following October). This new variety was based upon an earlier product (sold in other countries) called Pepsi Max, but featured a formula and flavor profile developed specifically for the US market.

The launch of Pepsi ONE included an advertising campaign featuring actor Cuba Gooding Jr. and the slogan "just one calorie." Subsequently, comedian Tom Green appeared as the spokesperson.
