Noothing is smooth, everything has little "potholes", although they are minisclue and not visible. Mentos have a lot of these little holes in them, where air can get trapped. When dropping a mento into a soda, the air bubbles release, this causes some bubbles to form and exit the bottle. The roughness of the candy also reacts with the gas in the soda, forming more bubbles that are trying to get the the surface. These bubbles form the "geyser".

there is a large amount of fruit acid in mentos , so when you react it with another acid they will combine and cause a reaction: if you put a mentos in a can of soda it will erupt, explode, ect. like an explosive volcano due to the fact of the acid. Above answer is completely wrong, there are tiny nucleation sites on the mentos where the CO2 of the soda's carbonation turns to real gas and fizzes up through the tiny opening. as a result of all the bubbles, the soda literally is pushed up and out of the bottle into a soda geyser.
