Cola or Coke is the best, preferably Coca- Cola. But that doesn't mean that the others don't do the same thing. They all shoot up into the air. But because of the chemical make up in the coke and the mentos that seems to work best.

Mentos!!
because its AWESOME
because its AWESOME
they don't Mentos do
There are chemicals in the soda called Potassium Benzoate and aspartame that react with other chemicals in Mentos like the gelatin and Arabic gum.
Mentos makes a geyser shaking it just make it fizz over the top but if you take diet coke and two mentos put in the mentos then the top really quick and shake it up and throw it on the street (far away from you) you will be pretty satisfied.
Mentos do dissolve but they realease Co2 which creates pressure in excess with the Co2 in diet coke (the thing that makes the bubbly feeling in your mouth is Co2) Which is why the stuff overflows and explodes.
mentos
What is the acid that makes Coke and Pepsi fizz?
Mentos are made by Perfetti Van Melle, an Italian company. The company has factories in America, and Europe.
You can mix coke and mentos together and it makes an explosion
