Mixing Mentos and Yakult might not produce a dramatic reaction like the well-known Mentos and soda experiment, which causes a rapid release of carbon dioxide gas and a geyser-like eruption. Yakult is a fermented milk drink with a probiotic culture and does not have the high carbonation levels found in sodas.
However, here are some potential effects:
In summary, mixing Mentos with Yakult will likely result in minimal to no visible reaction, primarily due to the lack of carbonation in Yakult.
When Mentos candy is mixed with Yakult, a fermented milk drink, it can cause a physical reaction known as a nucleation reaction. The Mentos candy has a rough surface that provides a large number of nucleation sites, which are places where gas bubbles can form. Yakult contains carbon dioxide gas, which is dissolved in the liquid under high pressure. When the Mentos are added to the Yakult, the carbon dioxide gas is rapidly released from the liquid and forms bubbles. The bubbles of gas expand rapidly, causing the Yakult to overflow or shoot out of the bottle. The reaction between Mentos and Yakult is a physical reaction, rather than a chemical reaction. It does not produce any harmful or toxic substances, and is safe to observe. The reaction is often used in science demonstrations or as a fun and interesting way to explore the properties of gases and liquids.

Yakult is a mixture.
Yes. Especially when mixed with Diet Coke.
Korea Yakult was created in 1969.
Tokyo Yakult Swallows was created in 1950.
I guess millions of miles away!
Yes, it's fine to drink yakult when pregnant or breastfeeding.
according to the yakult usa website, you can't. At least not yet.
They explode because of the baking soda and vinegar mixed in and when there together BOOM.
Yakult is acidic due to its low pH value. Despite being a probiotic drink that contains beneficial bacteria, the overall pH of Yakult is acidic.
