Because at a microscopic level, the shell of Mentos is very uneven, and the carbonated bubbles in the soda are immediately attracted to them. This results in a disruption of the surface tension of the soda, which causes all the carbon dioxide to escape the liquid at once. For a better explanation, see the Related Link below.

What is in mentos that make it explode in soda?

Mentos fizz because of the nucleation sites on the surface of the Mentos. These are basically microscopic holes and when it comes into contact with the coke all of the dissolved carbon dioxide condenses and form bubbles that wear away layers of the mentos where more nucleation sites are accessible by the carbon dioxide.
