Brominated vegetable oil (BVO) is a food additive made from vegetable oil with the chemical bromine bonded to the oil. It is used in several popular sports drinks and sodas to keep the flavor well blended throughout the drink rather than floating to the top. However, in 2014, both Coke and Pepsi dropped BVO in their formula, and in 2020, Mountain Dew also dropped it from its main line. Therefore, it is unlikely that any food products currently contain BVO.
